Kodak Bantam Model F 4.5 Camera With Rangefinder and Film: This model, the f 4.5 Bantam was made from 1938-1948. The lens is a Kodak Anastigmat Special f. 4.5, 45mm. The bellows are supple, and they pop out by themselves and lock back to allow the carrying case to close. The viewfinder snaps up nicely, and is bright and clear. The distance ring turns nicely, as it should. The f. stops move smoothly, and the shutter speeds all work- 1/25 - 1/200 and B & T. Included is an 828 take up spool. Along with this vintage camera comes the well-known Kodak Service Rangefinder, which works from two feet to infinity. It slides into the shoe on the camera or can be hand held. Both split image and distance scale are seen in the viewfinder. It is accompanied by its own suede pouch. The film with this lot is Kodacolor X 828, unopened, expiration Sept. 1970.
