Posted - Aug 03 2010 : 6:43:56 PM I recently purchased a FARM-3 camera, a very interesting piece, looks a lot like FARM-2, almost identical. There is another piece on eBay that has a viewfinder that goes into the film cartridge slot. I guess I'm a bit confused why you would need a viewfinder if there is already a viewfinder for both eyes on it...

You think that there is no humidity in air, only in water? ;)
