So many box
cameras were produced by various companies it would be difficult
to list them all. They are extremely common and can be picked
up for as little as £1. These three are all Kodak examples,
from left to right: No.0 Brownie c1915, No.2 Brownie made from
1901 until 1933 and a No.2 Rainbow Hawkeye, although this example
is boringly black - rather than one of the coloured versions.
The No.0 takes 127 film, No.2 takes 120 which was introduced
for it, so it's claim to fame might well be that. The No.2 Hawkeye
uses 120 again. All have similar basic rotary shutters giving
speeds of instant or timed.
