This year I'm using a different film format each month, starting with the smallest and working my way up through the sizes. The format for September is 127 roll film which was introduced in 1912. Narrower than 120 film, it allowed for smaller more pocketable cameras to be made, perhaps most famously the Kodak VP (Vest Pocket) also known as the soldiers' camera because many of them were used during the First World War (1914-18). Today only a small number of films are available in 127, but it could have been worse, ten years ago it looked as if the format was finished forever.
This was taken with an Ihagee Parvola camera which was made in Germany in the early 1930s.
The film is Rollei Nightbird redscale film, which I re-rolled to revert it to "normal" film. Developed in the Tetenal C41 kit.
