Six-20 Kodak Junior

The Six-20 'Kodak' Junior is a folding camera for 620 film rolls. It was made from 1933-1940 and has just a brilliant finder, like other contemporary budget cameras. An improved version with smoother folding mechanism and faster lens in octogonal front-plate was available.
The cameras have a simple shutter. Originally unnamed, finally it was badged No.0 Kodon, and it offers speeds 1/25, 1/50 and 1/100 sec. plus B and T mode. The simple version has an f11 lens, a Twindar or a Doublet, which is focusable to three distance ranges: 5-8 ft, 8-15ft, and beyond 15ft. The advanced version has an f6.3 Kodak Anastigmat, focusable by means of a complete distance scale from 1.5 to 30 metres. [[Category:6x9 viewfinder folding
