This is not a Magazine Camera, because Magazines are complicated and unreliable, however ingenious they may be. They stir up dust, and produce pin-holes negatives in consequence.
ltisallvery sine toexamine, and perhapsadmire, MagazineCameras at a dealer's
2 shop, or even at home, but in practical work in *‘ the field” ts the only safe way to test Ww: | CH A D Ww | oe B them. Imagine carrying a Magazine Camera for a day over a dusty road; and then R rmagine the bother with sheathes or paper-sacked plates. Magazines, too, increase
bulk, weight, and cost.
My Hand Camera is provided with Barnett’s Patent Plate Holders (Dark Slides), which are, in every way, far superior to the vi ery best English-made Dark Slides ; besides being less than half the weight of the lightest (j-plate size, 14 ounces each), and not half the price of tre cheapest (30s. per doz. for }-plate size). For further description of these Dark Slides, see Special List.
There is no limit to the number of plates that may be exp»sed, and no liability to expose the same plate twice, as in Magazine Cameras (because the Slides are single—a great advantage),no possibility of a plate ‘‘ sticking half-way,” as in Magazine Cameras, ‘and from 3 or 4, 5 or 6, and up to a dozen of these Dark Slides may be carried in the pockets, or in a neat little case.
Plates or Films can be used with equal advantage.
My Camera is not a “fixed focus” instrument. It has a novel means o¢ focussing, and is available for any suitable Lens from 3 to 5! inches back
focus, which the user may already possess. None more suitable than one of my Rapid Stereoscopic Lenses, ot which some hundreds have now been supplied, There is also provided a small ivorine tablet or disc, on whicn the user can make for himself i in 5 minutes an Index for the various distances to suit the particular Lens in use. And if he is not satisfied he can clean off his index in an instant and start again. One Lens can be substituted f r another as in any ordinary Camera. The Camera is provided with a Focussing Screer, which may be used or left at home; thus the instrument tnay be used on a tripod stand as any ordinary Camera. The Camera is provided with a Kershaw Shutter, because it is ‘the most Practical instantaneous Shutter; it is wound up by pulling a short cord (catgut), and “‘let off” by touching a button, or it may be thrown out of action in an instant for time exposures. It is provided with or without a Finder and Level. It is beautifully made in well-searoned mahogany stained black. It is made in two sizes, viz., }-plate and Stereoscopic. It is the smallest, lightest, and most perfect practical Hand Camera yet introduced. It is always ready. Tt is inexpensive. It is not a toy. Write for ‘particulars,
