: I have a K-20 camera that I would like information

: Can you help? Bill Huck
It was made under contract for the military during WWII by Graflex
and several other companies. It uses a 183mm lens and 5 inch roll
film, and was intended for handheld oblique photography. Fixed
focus with the operating lever on the right. Current value seems to
range from $100 to $200.If you are thinking of using one, the only
film still available seems to be Kodak aerail plus-X, and I suspect
they are just selling out existing stock and are not likely to make
more.
