It is admitted by all disinterested photographers of experience that T 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 usc as any ordinary camera for time exposures when mounted on a tripod, «Ke.
By not being a Magazine it has the merit of semplecety, and by being provided with Barnett's Patent Dark Slides (for which Iam the sole agent in JSurope) it has the virtue of eficéency, hesides other advantages, such 2s portability, lightness, &e., &c. (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 tive, or six plates may be carried in the pocket as little memoranda hooks, and we can sally forth with a perfect httle 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 wont 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 «simpler method.
My method of hulding « Hand Camera—viz., under the chin—has, since it was first published in the Byetish 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.
