Photo taken with a sale lentilla achromatic.

Hi:
I present myself. My name is David and I live in the N.E. of Spain (Europe). I do not speak English, my languages are Spaniard, Catalan and French. I must use " Free Translation Online ", but every time I understand more English thanks to my forum. I was born in 1960.

I show them a photo thought by my deceased father, Andrés Montón Remacha with his camera " Capta Baby ", of film 127, in the 50s. The photo belongs to the people of The Riba (Tarragona), Spain (Europe).
The target of this spaniard "box" is an achromatic lens.

Bests Regards: David

Welcome! I'll quote your post for the picture to show up. This is an anti-spam measure on this forum (the first post can never contain a picture).

Hi:

Thanks for the welcome! I show you another photo thought by my father in the 50s. Part of the village was destroyed by the river Francolí, in October, 1994. Look that in the way are not seen cars.

I want to photograph the camera of my father, so that you see her: it is a spaniard "box" of bakelite, the film is 127.

Bests regards: David

Hello all the people:

I show it to them C Baby of my father. Only it has two speeds: B and 1/30 sec. Achromatic lens blue coating. Look at the curvature wherefrom the film is exposed, to correct the distortion due to the cheap lens.
