Kodak Brownie Cresta 1955-58

This is my new beauty - Brownie Cresta. Big, pastic and I think it might be the most dirty camera I ever bought, so time to use my new cleaning kit.

The Brownie Cresta was made by Kodak Ltd. in the UK between 1955 and 1965. It was made of plastic and took 6x6cm images on 120 film. The "Kodet" lens had a slider for either a yellow filter or "close-ups" of 4-7ft. The shutter was single speed, approx 1/40s and no B setting.

The Cresta had similar construction to the Brownie 127, but larger.

Giottos cleaning kit for all my old cameras

When i´m home and don't feel so good it´s perfect to have a cleaning project of all the old and dusty camera I have.
So have bought a Giottos Cleaning Kit. Goat’s hair brush, white micro-fiber cloth, small rocket blaster and some cleaning solution, and ten cotton swabs with pointed and blunt ends. I love the design of the rocket blaster.




I try to find some good video on "clean your old camera" but the one on youtube was horrible.

but this is good one:
