With a name like that I just had to put in a bid for it ! There’s not that much information on the web about the Skylark, it was apparently made by Pal in Japan mainly for the American market. The lens is a 40mm fixed focus with auto aperture and shutter speed, and there are settings for 10 – 200 asa film. I had a few rolls of Kodak TMax 100 in the fridge expired about 1992 ish. Never really got on with TMax always preferred Plus X or Tri X. I thought the TMax would be a good film to try with stand development using Rodinal 1-100 dilution.
Bowling Club
This sign for the bowling club is just around the corner from where I live and I tend to use it as a test shot for any new camera.
Horse Chestnut
My favourite tree on my walk into town.
At your convenience
It’s amazing what you can find tucked away. It looks like the closest focus is about 5-6 feet.
The most boring door ?
It must be one of the most bland doors I’ve found (so far)
Contre jour (well almost nearly)
And again
Special Train
Not sure why this train is special but there were quite a few people photographing it.
The little Mansfield Skylark quite impressed me as did the TMax and stand development, a camera I shall certainly use again.
