Talk:Time Magazine Camera

Hi

Have been discussing the Time Magazine Camera page with John-Henry Collinson (don't think he edits but a lot of his camera-wiki photos on flickr are used) and I wanted to check something out with you.

The original posting was ported over from camerapedia with no pics and referred to glass lens version. You added a photo quite reasonably in 2010 with a Time camera with a Kinetic optical color lens. Later you added the kinetic optical lens to the original specs.

Just wanted to check as Henry has one of those cameras with the kinetic lens and the lens is plastic. It's also a dead ringer bar faux viewfinder for the Barclaycard Visa Camera given out in the UK (both seem made in Taiwan). Several varients of the time camera exist (if you google and in McKneown according to Henry). I haven't seen in the flesh but images do exist of a lavec glass lens which is reviewed as having a glass lens

Did you have a Glass lensed Kinetic version ? and do we need to tweak the page (i've started something on my talk page as a discussion with henry) I suspect the original poster had just seen or been aware of the lavec lens version
