COLLECTOR NOTES
The early Perkeo models are increasingly sought after, especially examples fitted with the Skopar 5.5cm f/3.5, a respected Tessar‑type lens known for sharp, contrasty rendering. With 127 film now niche but still available from specialist suppliers, these cameras appeal both to collectors and to enthusiasts shooting small‑format vintage roll film.
