Photo op lasted about 3 seconds.

2.25.2018. 1/50, f/8, Cousins playing in the "plane". Used 1954 Argus C3 # 966248, Ilford FP4+, ASA 125, Lens: Argus 50mm Cintar f/3.5. Development: HC-110e. The grandkids were over, it was at the end of the day, dinner was almost ready, & I was shooting the backyard activity when I happened to see these cousins playing on the "plane" on the patio. For some reason, I had the camera focused, & the exposure set, so I quickly armed the shutter & fired it. Then >poof<, they were off doing something else. I hoped for the best. I now have this photo in a frame in the house. It didn't turn out too bad.

Nice shot of the kids, looks like an orange tree in the background. I saw a C3 on a table at a clothing store in Boulder last year, asked about it and the girl said is was for just for show.

I learned on a C4, ran a lot of pan-x through it. I must say that "arming the shutter" on an Argus was never that fast - even using the double-twist technique.

Works for me.
