Kodak No. 2 Film Pack "Hawk-eye" Camera (1922-1925) (YouTube Video Overview, Large Image, Shutter Mechanism, Interior of Back Cover) This Hawkeye box camera is all painted metal. It must be steel since a magnet sticks to it. It takes 520 pack film; not roll film. (See westfordcomp.com showing a No. 2 Hawkeye camera and film pack.) A film pack held twelve sheets of film. The picture area was 2.25 inches x 3.25 inches, or 57.15 mm x 82.55 mm. That's about the same picture area of 120 roll film 6cm x 9cm format which has an actual picture area of 56 mm x 84 mm. 120 Film - Wikipedia. Like many simple cameras into the 1960s, it has a rotary shutter and meniscus lens. Photography and Vintage Film Cameras explains how a rotary shutter works. The shutter speed is around 1/30 to 1/60. "A positive meniscus lens has two spherical surfaces. The name comes from the Greek [word] meaning a little crescent moon." (Meniscus Lens - Camera-Wiki.) The use of Kodak film packs is explained at Film Packs - Kodak Classics. (See also Film Pack - Camera-Wiki.) This YouTube video with more modern 4 x 5 inch pack film helps visualize how pack film works. (See also Kodak Verichrome 520 Film Pack - photo.net/forums.) The original list price for the camera according to No.2 Film Pack Hawk-Eye - Kodak Classics was $2. Adjusted for inflation that's equal to about $33 in 2023 dollars which is really quite reasonable. Harvard Historic Scientific Instruments Collections has excellent information. The very cool owner's manual, "Picture taking with the No.2 Film Pack Hawk-Eye Camera," dated November 1922, is at butkus.org. It contains a price list that states a 12 pack of film was 50 cents.
The camera is fixed focus. Subjects 11 feet away and further will be sharp and subjects 8 feet away will be acceptably sharp for practical purposes. There was the Kodak Portrait Attachment available for subjects closer than 8 feet. With the Portrait Attachment the subject must be exactly 3.5 feet away. The camera has one instantaneous shutter speed which is probably around 1/30 to 1/60 second as explained above. By pulling up on the slide on the top front of the camera, the shutter will remain open for time exposures. Pages 11-13 of the manual give suggested times for indoor photos which can be from several seconds to minutes. The film speed is not given but it must have been quite slow. (ASA Film speed ratings were not developed until 1943. Film Speed - Wikipedia.) The focal length is not specified but measuring from the approximate location of the lens to approximate film plane is about 105mm or a little over 4 inches. That's pretty close to a "normal" lens using 6mm x 9mm film. (See Shoot It With Film.) The diameter of the lens is about 7.5mm. The f-number would be the lens focal length divided by the lens diameter, or about 105mm divided by 7.5mm equals f14. (See generally, Photography and Math.) That sounds reasonable since a small aperture is required to give sufficient depth of field with the fixed focus lens. Curiously, the name of the camera model is nowhere on the outside of the camera. The leather strap says "Brownie." The inside of the camera back reads: "No. 2 Film Pack Hawk-Eye 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 Patents Pending MADE IN U.S.A. BY Eastman Kodak Company, Rochester, N.Y."
