Accessories for the
Sportsman 125 camera
A range of accessories is available for your
Sportsman 125 camera. These include flashguns,
a yellow filter to "bring out" the clouds in black
and white photography, a U.V. filter to
prevent colour pictures being too blue when taken
by the sea or at high altitudes, a lens hood to
prevent unwanted side-light entering the
lens, supplementary lenses which fit in front
of the camera lens so that you can take pictures
between 3 .3 feet and 11 inches, and
of course a leather ever-ready carrying case to
protect your camera during use. Your
photographic dealer will be pleased to help
you make a suitable choice of these accessories.
Care of the camera
Use only a soft special lens-cleaning brush to
remove dust, and lens-cleaning tissue to lightly
clean the lens. Do not keep colour film for
too long in your camera or the pictures may be
affected by heat or high humidity. Should your
camera ever need repairing send it to Ilford
Limited at the address shown on the guarantee card.
