Thanks, yes it would of been lots of money back in the day
Maybe someone with a 3D printer could fashion something that could be used with say 120 film or the like. It would be interesting to see at least

I think they already have.

Nobody's mentioned the autographic feature yet - there was a small window on the back of the camera, and when opened, it revealed an area of the film covered with a carbon-paper-like tissue paper. Then a stylus looking like a baby nutpick was used to write a caption right onto the exposed file. The writing broke the carbon-paper surface, so the area of lighting was exposed to light. I don't see the stylist in the camera's photo.
Here’s a smaller autographic (127a film size) with a detail shot of the back of the camera. The stylus is at the top.
This is from a photography exhibit at the National World War 1 Museum and Memorial in Kansas City.

Thanks for the reminder.
I’m always shopping for a new camera as the one D810 I have is borrowed along with several lenses. The 780 seems to have all the features I would want.
Will see what’s available when the time comes I’ll have to return what’s been loaned.

No problem.
I've been looking for a friend and hopeful when I opened the thread.
Someone got a pretty good deal.
Cheers.

"Once your offer is sold/expired/no longer valid, make sure to come back and edit the title. Prefix the existing title with "SOLD" or "CLOSED" or something of that nature to make sure people don't waste their time contacting you anymore. You can do that by using the "Edit Topic's Title" link near the the top left."

Let me give it some thought.

Does your camera have IBIS?
Not unless it’s a Z model, then one would need the FTZ adapter to use that lens.

Really nice work!
Parades have so many photo ops.
All the facial expressions and floats.
The smell of street food- not to shoot, but to eat.
(thankfully outside with very few masks these days)
We had much better weather here in Kansas City for the parade.
NY & Chicago have the largest, we're in 5th place.
No serious photos by me as I play tenor drum in a pipe band.
If there's anyone on here from Kansas City who shot the parade on the 17th or going to Brookside on Saturday, I'd love to see/use some of them for FB and it's nearly impossible to play and take photos.
We did make the front page of the Kansas City Star.

You are right! I sincerely apologize for posting that comment.
I was thinking of a Saturday Night Live sketch where they had Stevie doing an ad for Kannon (not mis-spelled), but it was actually Eddie Murphy. Different times and mindset.
Again, my apologies.
I did use one of those Leica cameras on a microscope though.

Thanks for that interesting information. I didn’t know it was collectible. Too bad I can’t get film for it anymore. I also have a Minolta 7S but I thought the 700 was easier to operate on aperature preferred.
here's how to reload a 126 cartridge with 35mm : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuhM7McQOpc
If you're not quite as diy adept, you can use this adapter:

The little AD100 is a recent acquisition. My intent was to use it as an accent light on the background. I purchased the gel set for the AD100 and was very disappointed with the way it worked. The Rouge grid and gel set works great on the AD100 and the V1.
Thanks.
Good to know.
It costs a little bit more than a V1, but looks like it has some advantages.
My V1 sometimes misfires when used with a trigger. I’ve read there is less of that with the AD 100

Are you finding the AD 100 useful?
I'm on the fence on that one.
I have a V1, 200 & 600
I see it uses the same accessories and battery as the V1.
