I bet Seagull no longer exists by now because apart from Chaiman Mao, can you tell me which Ah Tiong would buy a Seagull?
Well, in fact I used it.
My dad bought in in the late 60s and he was very proud of the camera and it's brand...just like the Hero brand from China.
It took very good photos...I used the shutter B to take night traffic moving forming long lines of light.
I took it to London England for 4 years of my studies and then I used it my my first round-the-world trip in 1985..Singapore-Hong Kong-Toyko-
San Francisco-Denver- Bosie- New York -London then back to Singapore.
My dad still keeps it in his home in Singapore. He treats it like gold! Cleans it every now-and-then because this was the only camera my late mom knew how to use and used to take family photos.
In short it gives me lots of sendimental values.
Well I could be one of those Ah Tiong who has a BSc First class honours and a MSc from Imperial College. But this Ah Tiong is smart enough to emigrate to Canada in 1991.
Ah Tiong king.
