I'm guessing here, I think this is a Samoca 28 of some sort.
Anyone with specific information, please advise.
It is a rangefinder camera
It has a built in selenium meter
Says "Rangefinder" on the front
Ezumar f2.8/50mm lens
Fully functional, and I've got the original case for it as well
Found in a "craigslist" lot

30 seconds frozen into one single image...
A short break from the seascapes at the beach/harbours.
This is a shot from the inland lake right around the corner where I live. It was storming and the clouds were moving fast, the waves from the lake almost splashing against my camera. But you can't see that though.
The visual calmth captured here is very deceiving, but there's a hint of turmoil...
Part 6 of the series with long exposures.
Shot right around the corner at the inland lake.
Attempting to freeze larger periods of time in one image you will see my 10 minutes + exposure shots in the near future...

The skyline of Lower Manhattan, including TriBeCa and the Financial District (with One World Trade Center), as see from the New Jersey Waterfront. This was the first long exposure I took with the Sigma 10-20mm, pretty happy with the way it came out.

I wanted to get a shot of the flower from underneath as the sun was beaming overhead, but once I looked at it in Lightroom, it didn't really "pop" for me and I already had several similar shots in my stream. Instead of deleting it, I wanted to try something new.
This is a combination of selenium toning and a bit of exposure tinkering in post processing.
I kind of like this one, it has a bit of a otherworldly feel.
Let me know what you think.
( I realize that there are blown out highlights, but I left them in for two reasons. One, removing them would alter the image and I like it as it is, and two, I actually like them there :)

The RolleiMagic definitely was an entry level type offered by Rollei and is in no way comparable to the Rolleiflex or even Rolleicord.
I got mine at some yard sale almost 30 years ago, used it a few times, was not very impressed by the optical quality, put it in a box and forgot about it.
I found it again today, over 25 years after having used it the last time. The RolleiMagic is designed to be used in fully automatic mode, using input from the selenium light meter to select the appropriate f-stop between f/3.5 and f/22 and exposure time between 1/30 and 1/300 s.
Selenium meters have the advantage of not requiring a battery, but they simply stop working after a time because of the degradation of the semiconducting properties of the material used. Mine is still working, probably because the camera was stored in cool, dry, dark conditions throughout. I doubt that the readout is still accurate, though However, the RolleiMagic also has a not-fully-automatic mode (two in fact, one for flash and one for available light.
In the available light manual mode, exposure times between 1/30s and 1/300s are chosen automatically, depending on the user-selected aperture.
I will put a film through it and see how it turns out. Then I'll decide what to do with it.
This was taken with a 2003 Leica D-Lux, which is not to be confused with the new Leica type 109.
