I have one of those -- and mine also shows a more subtle  the vignetting that yours does.  It's really a remarkable little camera.  Until I get a baby Rollei or a Yashica-44, it's the best 127 film camera I have.

Very classy camera, too.

Being a person of considerable class, I'd never consider using a camera that wasn't classy !

I know that is the case, Gene, and I'm going to take a picture of you with me for reference when I visit the Goodwill store to buy my fall ensemble.  Thanks for being a Beacon of eloquence!  Don't know Werra we'd be without you!!

Mark, if you're going to get another 127 camera, don't aim low.  Look for a Sawyer's Mark IV = Primo Jr.  Much, much, nicer and better than the Yashica 44s and baby Rolleis.

Cheers,
