    What kind of camera is this?




    ...and can you still get the birds that hide inside and use their beaks to chisel the image onto a stone tablet?

    I'm not sure about the camera, but I'm pretty sure that lens is pre-war and uncoated.

    The artist probably used the original Zone I camera as a model, since the picture was drawn long before the Zone VI series came along.

    However, that's a pretty good likeness of Fred Picker(or is it Ron Wisner?).
