Chronology of cameras Foca
Traduction de Daniel Clément
Antoine Maréchal meets Léopold Saroyan then it makes the following dialog.
“ - Ah.. by the fact, It will work far less than properly now
- It is not important
- Not important ? are you joking ! what do you think I’ll become now ?
- Well ....pedestrian !
You know the movie , but did you notice what was hanging on Bourvil’s neck while he went out of the destroyed 2 cv car?
This was a leather case which may be familiar to you.
You must wait a bit, looking at the movie, to discover the camera itself. This camera is a Focaflex I. The focaflex II is different because it offers the possibility to change the lens.
In fact, this straight and sober designed body houses a reflex viewfinder.
The lack of a prominent prism may be misleading. The prism of this camera is very small and is installed inside the top cover of the camera body.
To learn more about this camera, I invite you to read this page of the Roland web site and there, you will see that we have similar cinema background and watchfulness .
