#fallingplatecamera

I have developped a soft spot for old -very old- Duroni Magazine cameras (aka Falling Plate, or Detective cameras) from around 1900. This is my latest addition, a LAMPO-DURONI BREVETTATA 9x12 camera, with 12 plates and a very old storing box (original?). This one seems to be the oldest so far, 1900. I have found two others, one supposedly from 1908, the other a slightly advanced model, from maybe 1908-1912. - If I find the time this weekend, I will take pics of all of them and show them side by side, also will try to show their size. Those are big boxes, super beautiful ,-) - #MagazineCamera #DetectiveCamera #FallingPlateCamera #PlateCamera #BoxCamera #9x12 #1900 #LampoDuroni #Duroni #VintageCamera https://www.instagram.com/p/B4S5hUWnTQL/?igshid=14b64xk8xdm10

Mattscheibe - 9x12 ground glass view. - Since the Murer & Duroni is a 9x12 camera like my Voigtländer Avus, I thought I'd try the ground glass in the detective camera. Now that's what I call "live view", despite the old, spotty glass ,-) - #MurersExpress #MurerAndDuroni #Newness #MurersExpressNewness #DetectiveCamera #FallingPlateCamera #ninebytwelve #groundglass #groundhlassview #Mattscheibe #Voigtländer #Voigtlaender #Voigtlander #Avus #VoigtländerAvus
