raoul_mora Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 After considering it for more than a year, I finally broke down and bought a couple of old Brownies at an antique sale (a Dualflex II and and a Reflex Six-20), both for 9 bucks and both of which I plan on using. The Six-20 offers a choice of three apetures by way of a small lever below the taking lens. The numbers on the camera itself (12-13-14) don't help me much, nor does the data base at the George Eastman House website, which tells me that the aperture is f11 but doesn't mention the other two or tell me which of the three is actually f11. Can anyone tell me what f-stops these three apertures correspond to. R Mora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_eve Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 The "12-13-14" numbers are "EV"'s (exposure values) and correspond (approximately) to f/11, f/16 and f/22 respectively, ie cloudy, sunny and "seaside or snow" on 100ASA film. Enjoy :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
