Their lenses are masterpieces, their ad- justments more accurate than many a professional studio camera. Nat- urally, they cost money, plenty of money. Beginning at about $25, the prices of these miniature cameras range on up and up and up. If you’re really anxious to spend a hundred dollars on a camera, you’ll have no tr uble at all. However, you can stay in the general neighborhood of ï¬fty dollars and get some amazingly ‘ cautiful cameras. By “beautiful†I mean something so expertly design~ ed and constructed that there’s sheer delight in handling it. Many of the miniature, precision ameras use very small-size ï¬lm. he idea is that the small pictures z'e kept as records, while enlarge- :en‘ts of the best she-ts are used by he proud owners to show what they‘ve been doing. 1) .J h} C v A Q \. Modern. ï¬ne-grain ï¬lm, by the "say, makes this procedure possible. You need not, of course, consider the miniature camera in your gift hunting. For the average person you' can select a camera with a reason- ably good lensâ€"one that‘s rated at 1' .83 or even f.4.5â€"and uses a ï¬lm big: enough so that enlargements are not always necessary. The famed ; "post-card size†camera is a favor- ite and will probably remain so. There’s a reason. If it has been several years since you last looked at cameras, shop around just for the fun of it. You’ll discover that things have been hap- pening.
