| Comments: | I WAS RECENTLY GIVEN ONE OF THESE ZEISS IKOPHOT METERS ALONG WITH A MINOLTA AUTOCORD TWIN LENS CAMERA BOTH FROM THE EARLY 50'S FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD.IT APPEARS THAT THEY HAVE SEEN VERY LITTLE USE. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT IF THEY ARE MARKETABLE OR SOUGHT AFTER ? |

| Comments: | Your site is interesting. Love classic cameras, the Contaflex Super being my all time favourite. This camera just exudes quality in its build. I prefer it even to the Contax, and have owned various Kiev cameras as well. When I take my classic cameras around on my days out they let me dream a little bit of other times and places. I guess the photos are only ever incidental! The really nice thing about being a collector is just trialling the cameras as if the photos are not important. I too read Physics in the UK, and still wonder now about the inexplicableness of our quantum universe and spacetime. It was a pleasure to visit your site. |

I just got one exactly like yours. So it was a pleasant surprise to see same lens and shutter staring at me on the webpage. Have you tried your lens out yet? |

| Comments: | Hi from NYC,... Your page on the candle story is remarkable and extremely useful. I learnt a lot. You must be a professor or a scientist...Light is fascinating, evaluating/measuring it to "spread" it on paper quite an art and magical at the same time. May be the poesie (in French in the text) photography starts right there? My dream is to be able to shoot (outdoor) w/o any light meter...to free myself from that contingency. I use a Canon P, and right now a Gossen Pilot...but understanding the EV scale was a step in the right direction. I think the candle scale make total sense and cannot see why it is not in use anymore...

| Comments: | Thank you for being there. I've had a weston master III exposure meter since I was 16 or so, and need to find an instructions/operations manual. This has been the best light meter I have ever had. I am now in my mid sixties and have been encouraged to have found the very meter I have in front of me now. Thank you. |

| Comments: | i was searching for cameras and lens information browsing the net. As many other people like me i think.
So i arrived on your site. Photography is a passion, also for me. But in the same instant i opern your pages i forget technical contents...i ve found a person ...and i found a soul. This appears to me your gigantic work on making a web site like this. So moreover i hane knew you affects and their little big stories. Your pics tell of them to me. Now i have the sensation of a deep knowledge of their passion and i know a little mor of their world. After these beautiful surprise i passed more time to read technical contents and als in reading you personal bio. We have sometingh else in common. i am a theacher : my subject is the experimental physics applications in new materials. Unfortunately i'm not so patient to construct a beayutiful web pages like yours are, and als my english is very poor and bad. But i can send some pics from my personal collection, if you are interested. So on. Compliments. It has been a big and happy surprise to find your soul in these peges. my best regards |

| Comments: | Hi Wagner, I got to your site while looking for information on a Agfa powder flash bulb which I used to use in the 1950's. It was about the size of the
Sylvania M3 in your collection of flash bulbs. The powder was in a cardboard cylinder, not glass. When it ignited the powder blew off the paper cover and it gave a very pleasant exposure. |
