craig_supplee Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Those are really pretty cameras. You could take them out anywhere and they would make you proud. Both take decent pictures, but you can see the soft corners from the Felica. You have a great camera source Gene. Nicholas, that is more than one word. You loose a turn. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gene m Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yup. The Felica photos have the toy camera look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minhnguyen9113 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Yes, they are cheap and pretty but the pictures are excellent. Thanks for your picture, it is in my office now Minh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin1 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 There's those forlorn chairs again - 3 of them if you count the bench. Really beautiful stone wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classcamera Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 What I like about both of these cameras is that they are completely intended to be cheep cameras, but still they have very nice fit and finish. Just like the Box Tengors, and Eho Box cameras, they are two element fix focus lenses with three f:stops, but have steel bodies covered with real leather, and nice chrome accents, and trim; all that in a box camera! Those wild and wacky Germans just didn't know when or where to draw the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franklin_h1 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I do like the colour on those cameras, my cameras are all like the model t cars, i could any colour i wanted as long as it was black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charles_stobbs3 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I just bought an '80s Konica EF3 in a nice shade of blue. Cheap (EBay) and pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick j dempsey Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Beautiful cameras... reminds me of the paint job on my Pen EES2, gray paint with light gray basket weave fabric... I really with more camera makers had gone with this instead of the boring old black and chrome... yawn. I like how the front of the Felica is made to look like a Compur shutter. hehehe. The photos look great! That Bella 66 is surprisingly sharp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosteaM Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I figure German engineers had fun creating these during their lunch time? Gene, the stone wall is great; you should re-visit this subject with your Rollei TLR. Ken, that was hysterical. Fun, lots of fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 This is so much more fun than the 'Lomographic' scene. Love em. I've taken a bunch of photos with my "old" machines (a flock of DDR SLRs), but they all just look like normal camera pictures, and where's the fun in that?

summitar Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Sounds like my last date. After viewing the photos, will someone please tell me why I own 7 Leica's. I'm thinking of sticking my head in the microwave oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
