    I just bought a Brownie Reflex (made in early 1940s). I had one in the late 1940s, my first camera. It's a box camera but you'd be surprised what great photos it can take. Can you get 127 film in France?

    You can't get 127 film anywhere.

    I have a roll of 127 Kodachrome II in my freezer haha

    Strangely no camera that takes it... I think I got it with a lot as a "bonus"

    Didn't Patton use a Leica M39 RF, though?

    Patton probably invented the Leica.

    There are at least 3 different type 127 films (all by Maco) on the market:

    -) ISO 80 b&w

    -) ISO 800 CN-41 (twisted, for redscale effect) One might try to re-twist!

    -) ISO 200 E-6

    I have a roll of recent Efke film in 127, procured through Freestyle, but don't know anything about its current availability.

    I love the Argus C3 as well, and have a few of them. Terribly underrated cameras!

    That's what I figured, AgX. Freestyle seems to have a bit of remaining Efke stock at present, but other than that, only Rollei Crossbird and Nightbird are available. It seems that with regard to "regular" B&W and color negative film, the 127 format is pretty much dead now.

    That b&w film is also still available in Germany and quite "regular".

    And a 800 ISO colour film... ist that not ideal for a MF low speed camera?
