Girls At Camp

This photograph just happens to have been one of the pictures I took on the first roll of film I ever shot. Pictured are my 13 year old sister and some other girls her age at camp.

Taken with a Kodak 35 RF rangefinder 35mm camera, this image was taken in June 1976, just after I had gotten the camera to work and started using it. To me, a very special image from a long time ago in my long photographic learning curve. My friend and neighbor, Dan, gave me this camera and that's his wife pictured in the background behind the truck.

Camera: Kodak 35 RF rangefinder (made in 1948)
Lens: Kodak Anastar 50mm, f/3.5

Shutter speed: ?
Exposure mode: Manual (of course!)

It does indeed, Bubbles. The camera that took this picture didn't work when it was given to me, but I fixed it and was able to use it for a couple years before it broke again. I still have it, but bought another just like it a couple years back that was in good working condition. Both cameras were made in the late-1940's, don't use batteries and you can adjust everything - focus, film speed, shutter speed, etc. It was a really good camera to learn photography with.

The one I have now and use, just keeps going and going! I've got pictures taken by it posted on Ipernity as well - Here.
