I write code for the cartoons you watch.
I take shitty pictures.
Come visit Marfa and I'll make you some! But the soup itself is Sancocho (ox tail soup)

Unfortunately, it just couldn't get a good footing against German and Japanese cameras of the era. It's style is very "love it or hate it" (I love it) and very "Late 50's American."

It would be Kodaks last attempt at a interchangeable lens rangefinder, a market they could never quite figure out.

The lenses are quite nice especially stopped down a bit.

The multi-frame attachment is a delight for composing for all three lenses.

The max speed of 1/250 is my biggest issue after the 1/400 on the Signet 40 (and even the 1/300 on the 35). It's a case of user friendliness beating out features.

The Arthur Crapsey desiged camera came with three lenses a 50mm, a 35mm, and a 90mm. The 50 and the 90 are both 4-element triplet designs and the 35mm is a six element heliar design, only the 50m is branded as an Ektanar.

The 50mm and the 35mm are radioactive lenses due to thorium oxide.
