What was the very first small focal plane SLR camera and when was it produced? (Hint: key word is small)

Agfa stuff seems to cost 6:50 aus dollars a 24 and if you're really clever you could reload one of the cartridges with black and white as B+W 110 film is out of production. 110 film in colour is now still produced by Agfa and Kodak, good luck!
stingray said:one more question about the auto 110, the lens caps for the little lenses don't stay in, i.e. they're just round plsatic billets... do you know of a place that would sell clip caps for lenses that small?

o gawd...i remember playing with that stuff too :crazy:Mitica100 said:It must have been the salts of the Hg (hydrargyrum-translated Liquid Silver), also known as Mercury. It's deemed to release toxic gasses but in my youth I remember playing with this stuff in my palms, even at the Chemistry lab.
