The '''Brownie Super 27''' is a [[viewfinder camera]] taking 4x4cm images on [[127 film]]. It was made in the USA by [[Kodak]], from August 1961 - June 1965<ref>Coe, Brian, ''Kodak Cameras - the First Hundred Years'', Hove Foto Books, 1988</ref>.  It has a built-in flash holder for AG-1 [[flashbulbs]], covered by a door beside the lens. The f/8 Kodar lens has two aperture stops - "SUNNY" (f/13.5) and "CL'DY BR'T/FLASH" (f/8), selected by a knob on the front, between the viewfinder and lens. There are two focus zones, "CLOSE-UP" (3&frac12;-6ft) and "BEYOND 6ft". The shutter has two speeds, 1/80 when the flash door is closed, and 1/40 when open<ref>[http://www.butkus.org/chinon/kodak/kodak_brownie_super_27/kodak_brownie_super_27.htm Instruction Manual] back cover</ref>. Winding the film cocks the shutter, hence preventing double-exposures.
