Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:19789653 | Brand: Ciro-flex |
Film Format: 120mm |
...-spacing:0px;">Take this beautiful art-deco camera home! Its classic design will make for an eye-catching piece on display, or take it out and shoot something interesting with it. I did. The lens is sharp at medium apertures. The shutter sticks at speeds slower than 1/25th. This camera is otherwise fully functional. I received it as a gift and put three rolls of Portra through it. It is too slow for my style of shooting and I have too many cameras so it's yours!
FILM: 120 Roll Film
Made about 1947 by the Ciro Camera Company in Delaware Ohio. The Ciro-Flex model F was the highest spec Ciro-Flex made. It features an 83mm F3.2 four element Wollensak Raptar taking lens mounted in a flash synced Wollensak Rapax shutter. Once again, the shutter sticks at speeds slower than 1/25. I have not attempted to clean the shutter.
CONDITION: This is a very clean and almost fully working example of the camera with it's original camera case. The camera uses 120 film and will make 12 6X6 images on a roll of film. Please look closely at the pictures. No fungus or other gunk, the viewfinder is pretty.
DIMENSIONS: 6” x 4.5” x 4” inches (approx.)
