And the winner is.....?

The greater control of the Baby Ikonta, plus the 16 images per roll, means it sneaks the win in the Battle of the Babies.

It didn't go all its own way, as there's something about the shape of the Baby Brownie that means you get more stability handheld, despite the single 1/50th shutter speed. But.... I only got 5 shots as the winder got so stiff it ended up breaking the plastic spool for the film (I'd put that in in place of a metal one that was already in that was slightly bent - now I know why!).

In the Extras the Bird sculpture and train station stairs are from the Ikonta (which along with the image above betray a couple of vertical lines that are either a fault with the camera, or with my developing....); while the gravelly centre to the car park that was the location for my category winning Scottish Nature Photography Awards shot, and the office building, are from the Baby Brownie.
