As my mom ages, I’m coming into possession of more and more photography hand-me-downs. This is a PB 20 Readyset by a company called Agfa, and it’s a hand-held portable camera complete with a bellows.
I don’t know too much about it yet, but it bears a striking resemblance to the Camera Obscura from Fatal Frame, which makes my wife real happy, as she’s enamored with that series.
I will likely never shoot with this, because I’m not sure the film is being made, but it’s such a cool piece of kit. It’s so well-built.
Thanks for seeing this amazing camera!
Apparently that camera uses 620 film which is basically 120 film, but on a smaller spool. Many films are made today in 120. You can respool 120 film yourself, or buy from sellers who respool themselves. The film is still available if you really want it.
You can also just file/cut a 120 spool down until it fits. Did that a few times, works fine and is less hassle than respooling.
