Agfa Solina with Caffenol

The Solina was a 35mm film viewfinder camera made by Agfa and produced between 1960 and 1962.
It was a name variant of the Agfa Silette (1958 type 3), for distribution in USA by Montgomery Ward.

On a hot July day I loaded the camera with a fresh roll of Kodak asa 400 and went to Valley Park, Missouri, and the Meramec River.
Remaining exposures were finished off here at home.

Developing was with Caffenol, a process involving strong coffee as the main ingredient in the developing solution, then fixed in saturated salt water. I do this at home, with safe and readily available substances.
Caffenol treats color film as monotone. The sepia tone is added by me in software.

I believe camera, film, developing, and digital finishing all worked well.
