I was GIVEN a 1935-36 Kodak RETINA Type 118 by a Lady who contacted Brentwood Photographic Club - kit was her Father's -- he died 20 years ago. It was badly worn with the black paint scratched off so I re-furbished it and took some Test Prints -- you can see the VIDEO I made here :

I am due to receive a Pentax P30T outfit from a Flickr member soon - he joined Chelmsford Camera Club despite me trying to recruit him for BRENTWOOD !
