Picked up a couple of this and want to have a bit of fun with them.
I have pictured the opening with my Rolleicord as a comparison - the rollei has a 6cm x 6cm opening. The smaller one is 8cm x 5.5cm and the larger is about 10cm x 6cm. The smaller one is marked as a No.2 Brownie Model C with the larger being a 2A Brownie Model C No. 116
I see i can get an adapter for the 2A, with the other taking 120 film. How many images can I expect to get off the smaller one - 8 or 9?
Also, I think the shutter speed will be anything between 1/40 and 1/50 but no obvious way to tell. Am I correct that the aperture choices are 8/16/32 ?
Finally, should I cover the orange plastic view finder for the film number or is that lightproof enough?
