This Balda box is a really fun and practical camera.

It has two focus zones: “near” and “far.” It has a two-element Periskop lens.

This Balda Pokarette camera can make photos in two formats. As with most cameras like this, it makes 6 cm x 9 cm negatives. But this camera also has a mask inside that, when installed, allows the camera to make 4.5 cm x 6 cm negatives, giving the user 16 instead of 8 shots on one roll of 120 film.

I shot these on Kentmere 400.
