Stunning piece of gear! It looks like the kind of camera a Jame Bond villain would use. Thanks for sharing!

.. elegant (gushing tour of the elegant beastie .. I missed the film it uses ! As always - love to see the ‘Film Stocks of the day’ & some classic shots by capable or and/or historic docu shooters - presumably there’s mucho ‘Military.. from Officer & embedded Photo Journalists .. on board, in the battle areas etc.. pilots & crew by their airships.. ‘war rooms.. Excellent shooting on your part ! Haha.. can see the Desert Fox with one slung over his shoulder & binoculars at his eyes.. surveying the salient while standing in his half track now.. 🦎🏴‍☠️🎬

Thank you, Thomas. It used 620 film natively, or 120 film if you respooled it. The camera that I am going to talk about next, is from the family of cameras that was probably best associated with WWII combat photography, but it was more of a civilian camera.
