| Kodak Six-16 & Six-20 | ||
|---|---|---|
Manufacturer: Kodak Date of Production: 1932-1936 (Six-16) Type of Camera: Folding Lens: Kodak Anastigmat f/6.3 Shutter: No. 1 Diodak (Six-16) Shutter speed range: T, B, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100th (Six-16) Viewfinder: Waist level & folding pop-up |
The Kodak Six-16 and Six-20 are folding cameras of the same design [1] that take size 616 and 620 rollfilm, respectively. Their art deco design touches are their distinguishing feature. The camera bodies and lens surrounds feature angular shapes, which differ from other folding cameras of the era whose bodies generally were rounded at the ends.
The Six-16 cost $40 when new. It uses a 126mm f/6/3 Kodak Anastigmat lens. It uses the No. 1 Diodak shutter, which fires at 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, and 1/100 sec, plus T and B.
The Six-20 cost $38 when new. It packs a 100mm f/6.3 Kodak Anastigmat lens. It uses the Kodon shutter, which fires at 1/25, 1/50, and 1/100 sec, plus T and B.
Both cameras sport two viewfinders. The first is a small “brilliant” type attached to the lens assembly that swivels to frame portrait and landscape photos. The second is a gunsight type attached to the camera body.

- ↑ The Six-16 with the f/4.5 Kodak Anastigmat lens was a folding model, the others in both sizes were self-erecting.
