  Focusing Facile Hand Camera

The Focusing Facile Hand Camera was introduced in 1893 by Jonathan Fallowfield. this later model of the facile was constructed of wood and finished in dull grain black for a non-pretentious appearance. The highlighted feature was the focusing which was accomplished by adjusting the indicator form six feet to infinity, or at any fixed focus desired. The shutter was fitted with a spring release providing a range of duration exposures. the finders were deeply sunk to shield from the light and give the identical view as the lens. The plate changing system was effected by pointing the arm of the indicator to any number of plate on the scale.
