written by tikayiyay on 2011-02-04 #gearIf GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) is a problem of yours as it is mine, then you must spend a lot of time on the lomography store website or ebay just looking and lusting after cameras. This beautiful, medium format, box camera caught my eye on ebay. It looked so cute and interesting and was selling for just $10. I couldn't help myself and the rest as they say is history.

Kodak Brownie Target Six-20
written by watttan on 2011-01-25 #gearThis vintage Brownie camera was produced by Eastman Kodak Company during 1940s.

I managed to kick start this antique by modifying the more common film 120 to fit it, read down and see how I did it :)
