Operate With 35mm Film: Speedlights flash, the picture is taken, the film automatically advances, the shutter is cocked, and all is in readiness for the next child in the line. Similar cameras are available which operate with 35mm film. The smaller film cuts costs a bit but naturally the contact prints are not so appealing as those from the larger film.
There is no monotony in rural subjects, either, and you may use anything from a view Camera to 35mm equipment to photograph people, farming methods, buildings, machinery, livestock and landscapes. Stick to the modern-not "tobacco roads."$4.00-less whatever professional discount you can wangle. Prints at these prices, mind you, are not the finest possible. A really fine print will cost about ten times the above amounts, or perhaps even more.
If you haven't 35mm equipment, you might work with Kodacolor, a negative-color film which is available in nearly all the roll-film sizes. Kodacolor film is relatively expensive-it costs nearly $2 a roll-but it has a greater film speed than the transparency color films, more latitude in exposure, and the prints which can be ordered are cheaper. A 3 x 5 color print from Kodacolor costs 32 cents, 5 x 7 is $1.50 and 8 x 10 is $3.50. Prints are made only by Eastman Kodak Co., ordered through your photo supply dealer, and the quality has been greatly improved in recent years.
The Ermanox Camera was soon replaced by the mo Flexible 35mm film camera, which had the advantage th it was smaller and enabled the photographer to tal thirty-six negatives in rapid succession on a single loai ing of inexpensive standard motion-picture film. Ti first Camera of this type to become popular with amateu and professionals alike was the Leica, designed just b fore World War I by Oskar Barnack, a mechanic in tl experimental workshop of the optical firm of E.
