I mentioned in my Summer Goals post that I wanted to experiment with some TTV photography. I already have one twin-lens reflex camera (a Kodak Duaflex II) that I found in an antique store in Lexington over the summer. Ideally, I like to happen upon these cameras...it's more fun that way. But because the Art Walk is in June, the chances of me finding a variety of twin-lens reflex camera on my own is pretty slim.
Last night I bid on a few cameras, and won each auctions! I will soon be the proud owner of an Anscoflex, an Argoflex seventy-five, and a Kodak Brownie Starflex. The Anscoflex is already in the mail. I'm still looking at a couple of other cameras. I have this vision for my Art Walk display, and it involves several TLR cameras.
Ideally, I'd like to add a Tower Phantom, an Ansco Panda, a Golden Shield, and a Spartus Full-Vue to my collection. My wishlist. But since I now have four cameras for TTV, I can be patient and wait for the right price.
I'm hoping to have some great photos to share with you in the near future!
