Taken with a Kodak Brownie Super 27 camera in week 124 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

The film is Efke 100, processed in Ilfosol 3. This film is notorious for being curly, and this routinely presents problems with scanning the negatives, but this is the first time the curliness has caused problems in camera. It is clear on most of the frames that the film had curled and escaped from underneath the square film plane mask, the slight forward bulge leading to unfocussed bands, and evident in the curved image at the upper and lower borders.
This year, 2012 is the centenary of Kodak's introduction of the 127 film format, once the mainstay of family photography, it is now obsolete.
To mark this centenary year, I plan to use as many 127 film cameras as I can, the project will be recorded on a new blog “127@100” which can be found here: 127centenary.blogspot.com
