I see one as BIN 130259071439, not cheapie, though. And shutter is jammed.

When film will get rare and expensive, those with half-frames will have some relief for some time :)

If anyone has this camera, please share your story; I think this camera deserves a minute of f[l]ame.

Hi! :)

Sorry for answering and not having one. Is just that i've been reading this (http://corsopolaris.net/supercameras/half/halformat5s.html) and feel pretty much in love with it, so I think I can help you with this minute of f[l]ame thing :D Wow, what a camera. Just take a look at these pictures of it (http://www.1300k.com/feeltong2/bbsView.html?menu=4010&searchtype=&searchstring=&prefix=1004&page=1&spage=27&bbsno=149643). The obvious statement: I wish I had one :) And the rating of my half frame dreams:

1. Yashica Half 14;
2. Olympus Pen EED (f.1.7);
3. Canon Demi EE 17;
4. Fujica Half 1.9.
5. Any Chaika any f. :D

Oh well... another/more camera/s to wildly search for.
