- Description:
- A new and improved pattern upon that shown last year. The following novel features may be noted: - The provision of rising vertical and horizontal fronts, focussing movement, shutter working between the combinations of the lens, simplified forms of indicator and separator chamber, and the absence of projections from the sides of the camera, which is also reduced in size and weight. A "Cooke" lens, working at an aperture of 6.5, is included, and the iris diaphragm and shutter are now regulated from the outside. There is a convenience for attaching the camera to cycles, and the whole of the front is removable, for purposes of dusting the lens, &c. The indicator is of a revolving pattern, and does not now call for winding up every time the camera is charged.
