PERSONAL NOTES

In 1932, the Agfa Box 44 price was fixed at 4 Reichsmarks. Like Kodak, the cameras were cheap, but the company did its money selling film. Like other box cameras, optical quality is very poor and shutter speed is very limited, often only one speed is available, making the use of these cameras rather difficult.


CONCLUSION

If 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.
