Flexaret II, a twin-lens reflex camera, made in Czechoslovakia around 1948. My grandpa was hiding it in a closet :)) I knew he had some old cameras somewhere so I asked him last week to show them to me. This one looks magic to me although I'm not sure what to do with it yet..

it seems to be OK, at least from my amateurish perspective.. all the handles moving smoothly, focusing.. I'm going to clean it a bit and then buy a film and give it a try...

do you need some special scanner to scan the film?
