Chronology of cameras Kodak 

Traduction de Sylvain Halgand.

Flash Bantam is a small metal bellows camera builds from 1947 to 1953.
The lens is one 48 mm aperture 4.5. Speeds go from 1/25 to 1/200. The setting of the distance is done while turning the lens. The shutter release is on the body (on the left). The button of right side allows the extraction of the bellows.
It is the evolution of the model F 4.5. The body is a little rounder. A contact flash was added there (hidden behind the plate supporting the lens).
The picture number window is green…
