About this deal

Rear view of the Photo-Miami. It appears this camera was made before WWII, around 1937. For how long and in which country (France or England) is unclear. Ensign Selfix 16-20 The Agifold was Agilux's small range of 6x6 medium format folding cameras for 120 rollfilm. It was first introduced in 1948 and this first model was a relatively simple folding camera with one special feature, a small top-view viewfinder. The Agifold II had an additional extinction meter (a special type of lightmeter) as well as uncoupled rangefinder. The Agifold III was mostly a cosmetic upgrade to a much more modern-looking camera.

While Ilford doesn’t advertise this, the aperture does get larger when you turn on the flash. That means you can get a brighter exposure by turning on the flash — even if you’re taking landscape photos.

After acquiring or making the base material, the first stage is usually the preparation of photographic emulsion. Since the late 19th century, this emulsion has usually been silver salts dispersed in gelatin (along with other dyes and chemicals) which gives us silver gelatin prints, dry plates and films. Other emulsions are used to make alternative processes. Previously known as Britannia Works, the company was founded in Ilford, UK during 1879 by Alfred Hugh Harman. Britannia Works initially began making photographic plates and in 1902 it took the name of the town to become Ilford Limited, despite the objections of the local council. In the 1960s the company was owned by Ciba, and the owner merged it with its other film makers, the French Lumière and the Swiss Tellko. Together they were the Ilford Group. In 1983, Ilford headquarters was moved to Mobberley, Cheshire. Haking is a Hong Kong based company that still exists and has produced a varied range of cameras under the name Halina from the late 1950s onwards. Technically perhaps not British but part of the British Empire and many of the cameras were marked 'Empire Made'. The cameras were more style than substance but many have stood the test of time and are available very cheaply. Halina 35X We do not recommend pre-soaking films prior to development since there is a small chance it can lead to uneven development. What are your recommendations for fixing films? Top view of different example of the Ensign Multex (not a model. 0, although it appears to be identical and even the serial# is very close) showing the various camera controls. Most obvious is the wind/speed knob. One switches between slow and fast speeds by pushing the bar with speed markers to the left or right. The small button top left of the speed dial needs to be pushed in for the speed dial to be moved. Shutter speeds need to be set before winding, as the winding of the shutter itself determines the gap between first and second curtains, i.e., the shutter speed. The button bottom right reset the frame counter to 0.

However, if your film is fixed in a non-hardening fixer (like ILFORD HYPAM or ILFORD RAPID fixer) a hypo clear is not required.An Ensign Multex model.0 with collapsible Ensign Multar 50mm f/3.5 lens. Although the lens style is quite similar to that of the Leitz Elmar, it has a much larger 43mm thread, and doesn't fit on any other cameras that I know. This is not a camera for pixel peepers or people who care more about the quality of images than the memories captured in them.
