Vintage

As a photographer I have a passion for the history of photography and the amazing vintage cameras that were produced in the early 1900's. Recently my grandfather, who also had the same passion for photography passed away and I received two of his amazing old cameras. This is a 1958 Kodak Signet 80 with flash, it was the last and most sophisticated camera of the Kodak's Signet line. It is an interchangeable lens 35 mm rangefinder camera produced from 1958 to 1962.





This got me wanting more vintage cameras. So when Donnie and I had to make a trip to Lawrence this weekend for some Jeep parts, I wanted to go shopping! We found a huge Antique store that had tons of choices. I found three beautiful vintage cameras to call my own.

This first one we found is a 1930's Kodak Jiffy six-20 and was produced during 1933 to 1937 and originally sold for $6.75, which would be around $315 today.






The next camera is the well known Kodak Brownie Hawkeye flash camera. This model was produced from 1950 to 1961 and was originally $7.00 with the attached flash, $5.50 without a flash.








This last one that we found is not actually a photograph camera but a movie camera. It was just so interesting that I had to have it! It is a Cinemaster G-8 8mm Movie camera, made by the Universal Camera Corporation in 1946. The top lever winds up and the camera would record once turned to the on position. This one still functions, if only I could find some 8mm film to give it a shot! It shoots in 16, 24, 32 frames per second with a f/ 2.5 16mm lens and cost $51.00 new, which would be about $665 in todays cost.





I already have my new camera's around the house and I love looking at them and playing with all their "strange" features! I can't wait to find some more amazing cameras for years to come!

Auto Mobile

Hey, thanks for Stopping by! I am starting this blog for my Photography business, Stacey Lee Photography, however plan to do a fun mix between all sorts of topics. Today I was playing around with my camera and the only one around was Auto, he is our awesome dog! He has been a part of the family for a few years now and he is one good dog! 


There he is, such a cutie! He is a hound and German Shepherd mix and we got him from the pound shortly after we arrived here in Manhattan. He is the best former stray, pound dog I could have asked for! He was already house trained, Oh thank goodness! 

I have been trying to teach him how to "pound it" forever now. He still can't seem to grasp the concept of pounding knuckles together, however I am pretty sure he doesn't even know what knuckles are! He knows how to shake though! That will have to do!


If only he was a female, he has such nice long nails! They sure would look good in Pink and Glitter. What doesn't look good with glitter!
Auto is one heck of a begger though, he doesn't beg for food though, just head scratches!





Those big brown eyes get me every time! He has got that look down!
