Mid 50's Argus C3

Wenatchee Washington

Called the brick becuase it looked like a brick and weighed like a brick.. Made of Bakelite which really wasn't very lite and should have been called Bake Heavy....

Canon EOS 5D ,17mm-40mm F4
1/50s f/5.0 at 40.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Wow , that's a nice camera! I want one for my collection but here in Belgium they are quit rare.

Well, they are woreth only about 30 to 40 dollars right now if in good shape and working.. Still , they with go up as time goes on. The shutter is " Bombproof" which means they will work another 50 years....
