Reality So Subtle 6x17 Dual Pinhole 120 Film Camera. You can think of it as having front rise if you select the top pinhole for the picture-making.
I love this camera, but I also have the 6x17F, which takes a filter (no dual pinholes). Time to slim down my gear as I can take only one with me on travel.

New cost me ~ $300 with shipping, but you can have it for $195 via PayPal, including UPS Ground to CONUS.
Excellent condition. Read about it here.

Pictures show blue masking tape and a removable plastic label with shooting aids. These can be removed without leaving residue, but I suggest you keep them on until you understand you do not need them. The camera maker engraved what is written on the blue tape (lens/aperture & which film numbers to stop at via the peephole), but these markings are small and difficult to read.

On the white label, I calculated what to multiply when a light meter reading taken at f/128 will be for proper exposure with this particular camera.
All my light meters end at f/128. The formula is (233/128)SQUARED = 3.3135375977 rounding off to 3.3.
You can use a phone app like Pinhole Assist on an iPhone, but I like to use my little Pocket Spot and multiply in my head.
Please tell me if you want me to remove the labels, and I will. The tripod and tripod camera plate in the photo is NOT included.
