Week 65 - Agilux auto flash super 44
This 127 rollfilm camera was made by the British firm "Agilux" between 1959 and 1964. It has an automatic exposure system bases around a Selenium cell. I like it's rounded dumpy design, and the space age decorations. It takes 12 4x4cm square pictures on a roll of 127 film, I've loaded it with one of my slightly expired rolls of Macocolor.

Week 63a - Sirius Action Tracker
This is one of a number of "ActionTracker" cameras that were all the rage 15-20 years ago, then were more or less given away in bootsales up to about 5 years ago, when they started to get scarce and the prices went up. I picked this one up for next to nothing a few years ago, and have added some crude home made filters to it.
It takes four exposures on a single 35mm frame, each one about half a second apart.

Week 64a - Vivitar 110 Point 'n' Shoot
This brightly coloured camera was in a box of "junk" cameras in my dad's garage. It's the most basic point and shoot type of camera, and even calls itself the "Point 'n' Shoot". It has a matching case, and the instruction leaflet is also the same colour.
We've had some bright weather, so I've transferred the 110 cartridge (with 7 remaining exposures) from the Action Man camera into this one.

I tried to include some military subjects in the photos I took with the Action Man camera. I hope the framing of his video camera is more accurate than the 110 camera is!
