Review by Vichiousfishes for Argus C3 Brick Film Camera
Rating:
This is an excellent camera and has been for the past 90 years. Simple and durable. Takes great pictures and a blast to use. On a sunny day just stick in 100ISO film, set it to f:16, 1/125, focus to infinity and you’ll have the fastest camera in the world. No facedetection/ 64 point focus/ tungsten balance/ the terrorists win/ tripod mode. Just a simple camera and great pictures. I shoot professionally with a DSLR and long to head out on the weekends with my brick. i dare one of you little punks to put down the Lomo and try out actual vintage photography. Like-a the kind grandma used to-a make.
