INTRODUCTIONThe Tower Model 7 is a box camera made in USA between 1955 and 1958. BEST SUITED FOR:
PERSONAL NOTESAs a later box camera model, The Tower Model 7 has some features usual box camera don't have. Like bigger finders, flash sync port, remote relase and tripod socket. This Tower Model 7 is one of the best box camera I ever used because of these features. But, a box camera is still just a box camera. Optical quality is poor and shutter speed is very limited, often only one speed is available, making the use of these cameras rather difficult. CONCLUSIONIf you want a cute opject for decoration, box cameras are cheap. If you want to use one, arm yourself with patience and don't have big expectations. PHOTO SAMPLESVERDICT:
