Savoy Mark II

Savoy Mark II

"The Savoy Mark II is a box camera for 620 film from Imperial, which may be one of their more "creative" branding exercises.
The Mark II remains a simple fixed focus model with no exposure adjustments."

Mine is a little beat up... but I still feel it was cool to score such a rarity at a local estate sale!

Diana F+

Diana F+

Manufactured since 2007, the Diana+ is a replica camera produced by Lomography based on the original Diana of the 1960s and 1970s, a "toy camera" produced by the Great Wall Plastic Co. Both are notable for their all-plastic construction and artfully-flawed optics.

Fed 5

Fed 5

The FED 5 (often marked in cyrillic, with several variations of font, ФЭД 5 {upper-case} or фэд 5 {lower-case}) is a 35mm rangefinder camera produced by the FED factory in the Ukrainian city of Kharkov from 1977 until 1990. It features an uncoupled selenium light meter with a single range of sensitivity. It came equipped with the Industar-61 L/D 53mm f/2.8 standard lens incorporating the rare-earth element lanthanum and a focal-plane shutter with speeds from 1s to 1/500s + B, flash sync up to 1/30s and a self-timer.

The FED 5 is an updated FED 4, with cleaner lines to the top, a pop-up rewind knob in place of the thumb-wheel, a hot shoe, restyled film reminder/frame counter and meter rings, and the meter scale repositioned and converted from a match-needle to an EV-scaled device where the user manually transfers the meter reading to the calculator.

Yashica Mat

Yashica Mat

The first Yashica TLR with crank advance was the Yashica-Mat, released in 1957. The earliest models are equipped with a 75-mm 3.5 Lumaxar taking lens and a 75-mm 3.2 Lumaxar viewing lens, succeeded by 80-mm lenses with the same specifications. According to some authorities (most notably Mark Hama, who formerly worked in a Yashica factory), the Lumaxar was manufactured for Yashica in West Germany; according to others, it was made in Japan by Tomioka. The lens, a four-element design said to be of the Tessar type, was later re-named Yashinon. The Yashica-Mat's shutter speeds are marked according to the older system with 1, 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, 1/250 and 1/500. (Note: the cable release is of the "Leica nipple" style which is also used on subsequent models ).
