Adrian6256 Posted May 23, 2016 Share #1 Posted May 23, 2016 Hey Guys, So yesterday I visited a local Flea Market in my area, and I picked up a complete K-25 Aircraft Camera in its original box with an extra canister of film. I got a great deal on it and I wanted to share this find with you all. Im planning on taking the camera to a local camera shop to see if they can develop the film inside. The reason I've come to the conclusion that film is onside is because the canister is extremely heavy. I do have a concern that film would not be any good after 70 years, especially depending on the storage condition, But its worth a shot! You never know what could be inside. I am curious as to what type of Aircraft these were mounted? And can the film survive undeveloped for that long? I hope you guys enjoy, Thanks Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stealthytyler Posted May 23, 2016 Share #4 Posted May 23, 2016 If someone in the past 70 years opened the can and exposed it to light, it may well be ruined. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian6256 Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share #5 Posted May 23, 2016 Just for fun, i found some airman with the K-25 camera, including one crewman mounting it to an airplane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
