Sabre 620 Shaw Harrison - 1956 - 1972
The Sabre 620
and her mysterious twin sister Valiant, exemplify "cuteness"
I was once the world leader when it came to
Sabre and
Valiant 620s. The cost of
constant shutter calibration was too much to bear. I'm slowly
divesting myself of them.

Medallion Motel - West Springfield, MA
Under its cheery exterior the
Sabre
620 is moody and sullen. Perfect for a late winter day in
New England.
I never stayed at The Medallion Motel and I never will again.
Bleak House - West Springfield, MA
When Diane Arbus tired of her Rolleiflex she frequently reached
for her
Sabre 620.
Hers was black though.
Budweiser - West Springfield, MA
"Budweiser." That's the name of this bar. "Budweiser."
I've never been inside the place and I'll never go inside again.
Farm - Belchertown, MA
My Sabre 620 has a random scratch and dust generator.
Most crappy cameras feature a "sweet spot" at the center of the
frame. Not so with this
Sabre
620. The sweet spot moves !
