The intricate world of cameras brought to you by {name}

Edwin Molenaar

The camera Argo CMF, Italy, the beginning of the release of 1939, the format of the frame is 6x9 cm. It is quite a rare camera, in some known catalogs it is not even mentioned. During the release of the model there were slight differences, the film rewind head was metal and bakelite, the shutter cover had a different design and so on. Excellent condition, everything works, the optics are scratch-free, clean. The leather case in the kit. The shutter cuts out the shutter speed by 1/30 sec and allows you to do the shutter speed "by hand". The Aplanat lens has a constant aperture of 10.5 cm. 11. The camera dimensions are about 9x16x13 cm.
Film Type 120
Weight about 500 g. The company was founded with the name ICAF in 1937 in Milan, Italy Antonio Bencini. ICAF manufactured a 6x9 Roby 120 camera, a 4x6 Gabry 127 camera, and a 6x9 folding Delta 120 camera. Shortly before World War II, the company's name was changed to CMF. During this period, the company introduced the cameras of Etna and Argo, but soon ceased production of cameras to manufacture components for military aircraft.



 The camera is in a magnificent state. The exterior is beautiful. Shutter works fine, endurance fulfills. I can not judge a more correct work.
