[OM] [OM]Brownie camera on TV

[David Bell]

Just caught the tail end of an interesting TV prog on BBC Four ( The 
Edwardians I think) about the Box Brownie being a milestone camera.

Sun (Royal) photographer Arthur Edwards took up a challenge to use the same 
type early Box Brownie used by Queen Alexandra 106 years ago  to snap the 
current Queen.

His results were excellent .. pin sharp at about 20 feet. The Queen 
evidently made a point of posing for him. His results appeared in the Sun. 
He was particularly pleased with a shot of HM surrounded by young girls 
clamouring to photograph her with their mobile phones....(the new Box 
Brownie?)
