When I was young, my father treated me to a 127 Brownie.
No control of anything. Exposure, focus, nothing.
And it took some lovely photographs of my family which I still cherish. Nowadays I have 6x6 and 5x4 cameras, I use incident and spot meters, I know about N, N+, and N- development, and split grade printing. We get ourselves tied in knots over materials and technique, and cameras like this remind us how simple and direct photography can be.
