The spousal unit came home today and said, "I got you a toy!" and I was like, oh no, what kind of junk is he bringing home from the thrift store today (the last one being a keychain with a miniature version of my favourite instant noodle, which is thoughtful of him but, do I really need it?).

To my surprise, it's not really as junky as expected. It's a Widelux F7 panoramic camera with carrying case and a set of filters. It takes 35mm film.

Apparently, according to eBay sold listings, some people would pay a couple of thousand dollars for one of these. Huh. (The spousal unit got it for a steal, and yes, it works.)

Anyway, I've been a camera collector for years and I have hundreds of film cameras in my collection. This one is definitely one of the nicer (and very few) additions to the collection in recent years.

Someone has written an informative article about this camera, if you're interested in reading more about it: dancuny.com/camera-collecting-…
