A PRACTICAL
HAND CAMERA
AND A COMMON-SENSE WAY OF USING IT. See Hand Camera Pamphlet (just published), 2 Stamps.
CAMERA WITH RACK AND PINION FOCUSSING, INDEX AND KERSHAW SHUTTER £2 15s, RR LENS, 35s. EXTRA. SIZE, SHAPE AND WEIGUT OF
A BOX OF CIGARS.
It is admitted by all disinterested photographers of experience that I have produced the most practical Hand Camera ever offered. It is nota Magazine, and has, therefore, not the intricacy of a sewing machine, because such is not required. It is a straightforward, common-sense apparatus for a certain purpose, viz., “Snap Shot” Photography ; and at the same time equally suitable for use as any ordinary camera for time exposures when mounted on a tripod, &c.
By not being a Magazine it has the merit of simplicity, and by being provided with Barnett’s Patent Dark Slides (for which I am the sole agent in Europe) it has the virtne of efficiency, besides other advantages, such as portability, lightness, &e., &e. (and these are not all; you must read the pamphlet).
But just try and think of the scores of times a Hand Camera is required for perhaps two or three exposures only. With this Camera, two or three, four or five, or six plates may be carried in the pocket as little memoranda books, and we can sally forth with a perfect little instrument no bigger than a cigar box. But with a Magazine Camera we must trudge off with the whole affair, sometimes as big asa portmanteau, for the sake of one or two exposures, and to change the Plates we must set some machinery in motion, “turn this button first, push up this knob and release that spring,” and adjust the whole so carefully, or it won't go, “hold it quite level, then turn the whole thing over,” or fiddle about with a black bag, and so on, and so on. In fact, the whole thing is too ridiculous in the face of a simpler method.
My method of holding a Hand Camera—viz., under the chin—has, since it was first published in the British Journal of Photography, met with such approval, that there can be little doubt it will become universal. It was only one of the common-sense ideas connected with my Camera.
