F-21 Button Camera
- An ingeniously concealed version of the F-21. Special housing with remote
release attaches to the front of the camera. The camera remains concealed,
while the front projects through a buttonhole. A coat button conceals the
lens. In the center of the coat button are four holes with thread, as though
the button is sewed on normally. In reality, the center of the button splits
and opens upon squeezing the remote release which simultaneously fires the
shutter of the camera. Over the years, the coat button disguise and the
basic F-21 camera evolved. On type 1 of the button cradle, the diaphragm is
controlled by a lever in the corner of the cradle. On type 2, the diaphragm
settings can be made from the remote release handle. The type 3 button
disguise was modified to allow for metering through a tiny hole near one
edge of the button, since later versions of the F-21 camera had CdS metering.
