Argoflex 75

by bergytone

The Argoflex camera is a 50's masterpiece of bakelite. A simple lens, 620 film camera great for snapshots. I paid a few bucks for it at an antique shop, and the shutter needed attention as it was sticking open. After a full tear down and cleaning, it was as good as new, and it is a very smart looking camera. Like any simple meniscus lens camera, it's got sharpness in the middle and that warm fuzziness around the edges. Made right here in Michigan... this one will see some use.
