Agfa Synchro Box REVIEW and SHOOT - early 1950s vintage box camera taking HUGE 6x9 frames

A fairly in depth review of the surprisingly good Agfa Synchro Box. Made by Agfa Camerawerk AG in Munich between 1951-1957, this camera was aimed at the consumer market, definitely for non-professional use!

After my poor performance with the Ferrania Eura, where I didn't really give the camera a chance and just moaned about it, I decided to take on another camera with seriously limited image control capabilities. This one doesn't even have a focus ring! Bring it on. I think I did a better job this time! Let me know what you think.

Interestingly, the one thing you can't do with this camera, is take close up portraits like the one shown in the advert!!
