Dear lord, another Kodak Tourist Camera...

EASmithV · May 24, 2009

I scored a Kodak tourist camera at a junk shop today. It has a 100mm f8.8 lens. B and T work properly, and 100 seems to work fine as well, but 1/25 and 1/50 seem to stick. How do I clean/fix this problem?

BTW, What speed is Kodacolor-X?

Kodacolor-X was rated at 80asa It was a C22 process film that was in production from 1963 to 1974.

When I was working at a commercial lab about ten years ago we would get about one or two rolls a month of C22 film which were returned to the customer with the address of a lab that could process this film.

I imagine that it cant take the higher tempeture of c-41? BTW, How do I fix the lens?

I found this info, it may be relevant, or maybe not.

Why not? What has the temperature of film processing to do the camera?

Reminds me of when I worked in professional camera shops years ago, and I'd have COLLEGE students come to me and ask for "a camera that shoots b&w"! :confused:
