Seagull 4-A

Seagull 4-A 202 TLR

A Nice Camera

As I have said before, I am not a big fan of Twin Lens Reflex cameras but I must say they are nice looking. I just find the perspective is odd even though the sharpness is excellent generally speaking. Also, they're a little clumsy to carry and operate... I guess I could get used to them, they do have their charm.

This is Model 4-A is the pro version, the 4-B is the budget consumer version. This Seagull uses 6x6, 120 film (A mask may be available for 6x4.5cm). It has an exposure help diagram on a knob on the right. It has a leaf shutter so can synch flash at any speed. It is basically a copy of a Rolleiflex.
