No. 2 Brownie Camera
George Eastman wanted an inexpensive camera that would appeal to the masses, His product designer, Frank Brownell, was able to deliver the perfect product. The Kodak Brownie featured inexpensive components encased in a cardboard box that was covered with imitation leather. The camera sold for the astonishing price of $1. The Kodak Brownie was marketed on the wings of a simple slogan that trumpeted its ease of use---"Operated by any school boy or girl." Date of manufacture; 1901-1924, film size; 120. 1/28/2011

History of DIY audio
Audio DIY came to prominence in the 50s to 60s, as audio reproduction was relatively new and the technology "complex," audio reproduction equipment, and in particular high performance equipment, was not offered at the retail level. Kits and designs were available for consumers to build their own equipment. Famous vacuum tube kits from Dynaco, Heathkit, and McIntosh, as well as solid state (transistor) kits from Hafler allowed for consumers to build their own hi fidelity systems. Books and magazines were published which explained new concepts regarding the design and operation of vacuum tube and (later) transistor circuits.
While audio equipment has become easily accessible in the current day and age, there still exists an interest in building one's own equipment, including amplifiers, speakers, preamplifiers, and even CD players and turntables. Today, a network of companies, parts vendors, and on-line communities exist to foster this interest. DIY is especially active in loudspeaker and in tube amplification. Both are relatively simple to design and fabricate without access to sophisticated industrial equipment. Both enable the builder to pick and choose between various available parts, on matters of price as well as quality, allow for extensive experimentation, and offer the chance to use exotic or highly labor-intensive solutions, which would be expensive for a manufacturer to implement, but only require personal labor by the DIYer, which is a source of satisfaction to them.
Just finished my new stereo shelf, instead of the crappy computer speakers I run this setup now. Speakers slightly tilted downwards. Sounds great!
More spec just for the record:
Audio source: Yamaha CD-NT670 D
Amplifier: Yamaha A-U670
Speakers: Monitor Audio Bronze 1

Manufactured around 1969 by Minolta Camera Co. of Osaka, Japan. From McKeown’s Guide: “In a sea of inexpensive, basic cameras for 126 cartridges, Minolta stands out for its quality. Although operation was kept simple, it was through complex engineering, not simple design. One outstanding feature of most Minolta Autopak cameras was the ability to keep a flashcube mounted on the camera at all times. The camera would automatically fire the flash only if needed. This later became common with electronic flashes, but was unusual during the age of flashcubes and x-cubes.”
The 800 was the top of the line! It had a coupled range finder with bright-frame marks. A CdS meter selects 1/90 sec or 1/45 sec speeds. It had a Rokkor 38mm f/2.8 lens, a tripod mount and a cable release socket. A fun feature was the spring-motor film advance. You actually wound the camera up with the knob on the right hand side of the camera and it would advance from frame to frame as you shot. The only complaint? The camera uses THREE batteries—two 825 batteries to fire the flash (these were “fun” batteries—they would explode if shorted!) and one PX-625 to run the meter.

To find out the true frequency I need another transmitter or reference VFO that can transmit in this range. The way the morse receiver works the frequency displayed is not the actual frequency it's listening to, though the difference isn't large.

My new, second-hand 50D upgrade from my first DSLR - the EOS 400D.
Now that I've a new DSLR, I've decided to try on the firmware hack to my 400D - 400plus It's quite a nice hack... with spot metering, ISO up to 3000, actuations info and so much more... And I just realised that my 400D has just under 10,000 actuations only! The second-hand 50D I've got has 34,000 already. Let's hope the shutter on the 50D lasts for a very long time...
