mflofwinos Super D Graflex Features Built-in Open Flash Synchronization The Super D Graflex, previewed by August Conventionaires during the Trade Show in Chicago, features re-styled controls with chromium and black finish, plus a new and exclusive feature — built-in open-synchronization. Used with a Graflex Flashing Unit and lamps of the SM type, exposures in the neighborhood of 1/200 second are secured that are more than adequate for child portraits and most action pictures. And, thanks to the safety circuit, the lamp will not ignite unless the release lever that makes the picture is deliberately pressed down. With a 6%" Kodak Anastigmat f/4.5 die Super D Graflex is priced at $141.00. Adding this new independence of lighting to the long-recognized advantages of parallax-free, ground-glass focusing and an erect image the full size of the negative, makes the Super D Graflex an even more valuable camera for all-around photography than its popular predecessor Series D.

Fast Twin-eight Film Twin-Eight Triple S Pan Reversible for users of Double-ornm cameras — has just been introduced by Agfa Ansco. Three to four times faster than TwinLight Hypan, the new film will be welcomed by users of Double-8mm cameras for the greatly increased subject range it provides. Twin-Light Triple S Pan can be n-cd for Loth indoor and outdoor, da) or night scenes, and is especially recommended for action shots or interiors where lighting conditions are unfavorable. In addition to balanced panchromatic color sensitivity, the new material provides remarkably fine grain and brilliant gradation essential for superior 8mm projection Super D Graflex with built-in open flash synchronization work. Protection against halation is afforded by an exclusive brown silver-coating between the emulsion and the base, which is removed during processing. A special lavender-tint base aids in giving the film excellent projection quality. The new film offers wide latitude to compensate for inadvertent misjudgment of exposure as well as good resolving power to insure clear and sharp results. Made by Agfa Ansco in Ringhamton, New York, Twin-Eight Triple S Pan Reversible is supplied in 25-foot spools (50 feet of 8mm film), which may be processed at any authorized Agfa Ansco laboratory. Flash Bulb Prices Reduced Welcome news to flash photographers are the new list price reductions in the Wabash Superflash line recently announced by Mr. A. M.Parker, President of Wabash Photolamp Corporation. Most important reduction is the new 11^ list price of the midget bayonet base Press 25, dropped from 15(/. This teams the midget bulb with the smallest standard size flash bulb, the No. 0, as two 11^ flash bulbs that have power and punch to cover almost 95% of the average amateur picture-taking requirements. In announcing the reduction, Mr. Parker commented that widespread popularity of the midget Press 25 and increased facilities for mass production made possible the new low price. Also reduced is the Blackout Superflash from GOf1 to 50(f list. All reductions effective October 1, 1941. A new Wabash Exposure Bulletin brought up-to-date as of October 1st, lists all of the new Wabash flash and flood bulbs for color, the new Blackout Superflash, and all other Wabash photolamps.
