When I started with analog photography I suddenly began to look for and value those old cameras that were in the back of some furniture or for sale online. I have made cameras, I have bought cameras and cameras have appeared. This is the case of this camera which I found in a piece of furniture in my house. It didn't appear magically. Bruno's grandmother gave it to him one day and the camera stayed there for years. On a trip to Buenos Aires someone gave me some 120 films and I had some so when I returned I decided to try this camera.
Cero-Phot is a very simple medium format camera with a simple meniskus type lens manufactured by Certo Kamera Werk, Dresden, Germany and introduced in 1958.
Today I took some photos from the camera. It's very pretty!
I like to test all kinds of cameras, from the most complex and pro to the simplest. I must say that I'm more attracted and challenged using simple cameras. I think that with a good camera, anyone can take a good photo. On the other hand, with pinhole photography, for example, limits are exceeded and you have to be more creative and open to do good things. Likewise, I have always believed that incredible things can be done with any camera. So the most important thing is to take the camera you have and take photos.
Some photos that I have taken with this camera.
I scanned them in rgb and grayscale. I like to do this and choose the option that most brings out the energy of the photo.

I have used a Certo.phot + Ilford delta 100 120 + Developed and scanned at home
"The camera vs the photos"
I have seen this thread on Twitter and I have participated and contributed about it. I'd like to do it here, so please feel free to share your experiences. I would love to see cameras and photos!
Cheers!
