Anscoflex

Now this is a cool camera. The Anscoflex was designed by Raymond Loewy and manufactured in the USA by Ansco around 1953-1954. It has an oversize viewfinder that makes it ideal for taking digital viewfinder photos. I picked one up on ebay a few weeks ago and just got around to making a viewfinder adapter to hold my digital camera. Here's some shots it took on my lunch break yesterday - the first few were taken in the alley behind the library, and the rest were taken a few blocks south in Colonial Park Cemetery:
