Kodak Vest Pocket Autographic      Bencini Comet S

There has always been an interest in small easy to use cameras. Both these use the 127 film format.

The  Kodak Vest Pocket Autographic was a folding strut camera made from 1915 to 1926. It has a  Kodak ball bearing shutter, speeds T, B, 25, & 50th and the lens is a Rapid Rectilinear f7.7

The Bencini Comet S was made around 1950 in Italy. It is a very well made camera with a single shutter speed of 1/50 and a fixed aperture. There are no controls other than a focusing ring which gives a range of 3ft to infinity.
