This camera was last used by my wife's long deceased grandfather, and given to us a week ago by his widow. It appears to be in good working condition, so we hope to be abe to try it out after a good thorough cleaning. I think it takes frames of 6x9cm size which, even if scanned at a moderate 3200dpi, should yield a ~85-megapixel scan...:)

This has an aura of timeless quality. I wonder how long it has been since the old camera was last used? Brenda

Nice treatment of a classic camera. How many megapixels is that :-)
