Période

This camera used by Mr. Roy Tash from c. 1924-25 until the 1950’s.

Canada

One of three cameras used extensively by Mr. Roy Tash (1898- 1988), Canada's best-known newsreel photographer. Tash began his career in 1915 in Chicago. He moved to Toronto in 1919, and was active from the 1920’s-1950’s. He was a founding member of the Canadian Society of Cinematographers. The CSC's Roy Tash trophy is awarded annually to the best news camera person in Canada. (ref. 1))

Fonction

When the film is inserted into the camera, this device allows the operator to slow down, speed up, and roll back the film by rotating the handle at various speeds and/or directions.

Technique

Introduced to the market in 1911-12, the Bell & Howell model 2709 was the world's first high-precision, all-metal (aluminum) professional camera. It introduced the top mounted twin compartment film magazine which became an industry standard, as well as the 32-tooth constant speed sprocket in the camera box for feeding film to and from the film magazine: the 32-tooth sprocket is still used.
