Vredeborch war vor allem bekannt als Hersteller preisgünstiger Kameras für das Mittelformat, wie z. B. dieser Box oder der Felica. Viele davon wurden an Vertriebsfirmen geliefert, welche die Apparate mit eigenen Namen versahen.
1959 beschloss Vredeborch, auch in das Kleinbildformat einzusteigen. Anlass war u. a. die Anregung des indischen Geschäftspartners. So entstand eine preisgünstige Kleinbildkamera, die Felinette. Da aber Kodak-Pathé wegen Ähnlichkeit mit eigenen Produkten Einspruch gegen diesen Namen erhob, hieß die Kamera ab 1960 Felicette. Von dieser Version gab es vier Varianten. Bei drei von ihnen hieß das Objektiv Nordinar 3,5, die vierte Ausführung hatte ein Nordina 3,5. Um den Fotoapparat wertvoller aussehen zu lassen, wurde eine Belichtungsmesser-Attrappe eingebaut und eine Seriennummer ins Objektiv graviert, die aber immer diesselbe war.
Erwähnenswert ist der Umstand, dass die Blende immerhin aus 8 Lamellen besteht, die eine annähernd kreisrunde Blendenöffnung ergeben. Gespart wurde dagegen an einem Zahnrad für den Filmtransport. Das hat zur Folge, dass sich die Stegbreite zwischen den Negativen ändert, weil sich der Durchmesser der Aufwickelspule fortlaufend vergrößert.
Da Kodak-Pathé der Name Felicette immer noch nicht gefiel, wurde die Kamera 1965 in Felicetta umbenannt, geändert hatte sich sonst nichts. Auch der Preis blieb bei 49,80 DM. Die Felicetta gab's bei Neckermann als Junior 35, beim Otto-Versand als Panorama 35 und in England fand man sie als Prinz-Pilot.
Es gab auch einen – von Vredeborch nicht lizenzierten – Nachbau der Felicetta von Halina, der wiederum von Foto-Quelle als Revue 35 vermarktet wurde, ebenfalls ohne Lizenzanfrage bei Vredeborch.
1963 erschien die Felicette L bzw. Felicetta L mit eingebautem Blitzbirnchen-Reflektor. Das letzte Modell der Felicetta-Reihe war dann die Felicetta BL 35, die von 1965 bis 1974 produziert wurde, als Panorama LR 35 auch für den Otto-Versand.
Meine Informationen entstammen hauptsächlich dem Buch von Harald Goergens: Vredeborch – Die Geschichte einer erfolgreichen Firma (Osterholz-Scharmbeck 2001).
This is my first D-SLR and my newest camera. For this shot I had a north facing window to the right of the camera, a flash with a blue gel and diffuser behind the camera to the right, and a reflector to the upper left to catch some of the window light. I have been having a problem synchronizing my slave flash with my new Rebel, my slave flash goes off but its light is not recorded in the picture, but if I trigger the flash maually its light is recorded in the picture. Could anyone give me some help? EXPLORED!

I feel I owe you guys (my contacts) an explanation as to why I have been MIA recently. About 6 months ago, a Sony scout asked me to join the Sony Digital Imaging Masters Program in which Sony sends me equipment and I shoot images for them. I've been planning and planning on where to go, what to shoot, etc, etc.
I received the first package and will start the program very shortly. Everything seems to be coming at me at full speed and I am just falling farther and farther behind. I want to thank all my contacts for the friendships you have given me. If not for you, I'd probably wouldn't be on Flickr so thank you with all my heart. I have learned so much from this community.
That aside, my first package consisted of a Sony Alpha dSLR A700 body, a Carl Zeiss 24-70mm F2.8Z SSM and a Sony 135mm F2.8 [T4.5] STF. The 3rd lens in the middle, a Carl Zeiss 85mm F1.4, is my own which I bought at the same time the package arrived.
The Zeiss lenses are just insanely sharp and the 85mm just became my favorite lens. The 135mm STF (Smooth Transition Focus) is a lens that is unique to Sony/Minolta only. Its uniqueness lies with having dual aperture blades (a regular one and a stepless one) and a special apodization optical element to render out of focus areas in the image more smooth and aesthetically pleasing. In other words, this lens was built for bokeh and bokeh only.
Hopefully I can go back to my normal Flickring soon. Please don't forget me. =)

Old school cameras are so cool, this is one from my small collection of retro cameras, I have about 15 in my collection, I pick them up at car boot sales or small antiques markets, I am going to have to try and use this one at some point, need to get hold of some medium format 120 film, I think I will wait until the weather is better.
I always think it would be really cool if someone did a range of classic cameras and updated them for the digital age, I know you can get retro feel digital cameras, but it would be cool if you could get one that looked like this.
Here is a bit of info :-
The Yashica A was a basic model, both cosmetically and spec wise similar to the late versions of the Yashicaflex A-I (first released in 1954) but with the top speed of the Copal shutter upgraded from 1/200 to 1/300. The 1960 Olden Camera & Lens Co catalogue lists the Yashica A at $29.95 and the Yashica D at $49.95. With a number of cosmetic chnages, it continued in production until 1969. Not many were sold in later years.
Although usually a black camera, cameras produced between about 1957 to 1959, like the Yashica D, had grey leatherette with either black or grey metalwork or cream leatherette with brown metalwork (rare).
The Yashica A features twin Yashimar then Yashikor 80mm f/3.5 lenses, and has a Copal rim-set shutter, with shutter speeds of 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, and 1/300. It has a PC connection for flash sync, and because it uses a leaf shutter, it is capable of X sync at all shutter speeds. It was offered with black or grey coverings. The picture size is 6x6cm.
This is a bit of a change from the norm, I hope you like it :o)
