Homage to Kodak- another vintage experiment

In light of Kodak's news this week, filing for bankruptcy protection, I thought I share another experiment with my favourite B/W film: The Kodak T-max. Whilst taking pictures on the car booty with my first vintage camera, I came across another little creative bargain. For £2 I bought this Halina Paulette made in Hong Kong in the 60s. Apparently very popular in the UK.

I had the honour to take the very last roll of film on this camera!

At frame no 24 the Pauletta decided to fall apart. It was a great little camera to play with. Specs include: a built-in selenium meter, a good shutter speed range, bulb setting and flash sync! Plus a good range of f-stops -much better than the Ilford Sporty!
