I guess there was also a weird Agfa Automatic 66, from 1956, which controlled its exposure pneumatically! $225 for the Super Kodak Six-20 was pretty insane considering you could get a rather nice new car for $1000 at that point.

I was going to jump all over you on that, but you took away my indignation... 1938 was not a good time to introduce a VERY expensive USA-made camera. Kodak gets a lot of lumps, I know, but they can't ever be accused of not trying to do cool things...at least back in the day. Congrats on the new blog. I'll link to it.
