The Retina II goes to Guildford


My Kodak Retina II (011) with an uncoated 5cm f2 Rodenstock Heligon lens, produced from 1946 - 1949. Later models gained coated lenses and thumb lever film wind. I bought this camera recently with the idea that it might make a neat little shooter. Hmmm - there's a certain quality to the images - it might work really well for some 'dreamy' portraiture with some grainy b&w film - but I don't think it'll be used very often!
