 TESTED AND FULLY WORKING: Purma Special Viewfinder Film Camera with Anastigmat 2¼ inch (~57mm) f/6.3 Collapsible Lens

Purma Special, introduced 1937; all Bakelite body

 

 

  • focal-plane shutter 
    with three speeds, controlled by a weight, which varied the slit-width. The shutter is cocked using a pear-shaped lever on the top edge, above the lens; the slit width/shutter speed depends on which way up the camera is held. Horizontal gives medium speed, vertical with winding knob down gives slow, and vertical, knob up, fast. 
  • The lens is sprung to telescope out of the body when the screw-on lens cap is removed. Capping (and so collapsing) the lens locks the shutter release - which, unusually, is on the photographer's left.
  • the ever-ready case opens upwards from underneath the lens, unlike most cases, which open forward from the back.
  • The Purma is said to be the first camera to have plastic optics, although this is in the viewfinder only.

This camera uses 127mm film
