Nice set.

These are very attractive little things, and it seems you have all the accessories.

I see them go quite cheaply, but I wonder how much work it would be to make film for them.

It actually is the first time I see this camera Embarassed
Looks somewhat funny, as if it tries to be antique and modern at the same time Smile

B&W film is still available from Efke, and I think frugal photographer may even have color film, and the plastic reels adjust to the correct size. When scanning you have to either mod your carrier or just leave one edge of the film unsupported - which is what I did and the results were just fine. http://www.frugalphotographer.com/cat127.htm

That is an awesome collection of kit there, and a very alluring camera.


My 44 next to a 124G, just for size compare:

I used rollei retro 127 film if I remember as well for Baby Pearl, expensive but worth to try a few times.
