Viewfinder: Great size and brightness. Focus screen: Microprism. Info: Exposure meter (match needle) Shutter type: Focal plane Vertical metal blade. All mechanical. Build quality: Very good and solid as a rock. Look and feel: Love the look and the feel have tank standard but in a good way.
Conclusion: Nice little tank that looks nice and have a quite nice feel. Good viewfinder and very reliable. But the light meter takes mercury cell battery. The mirror makes quite a lot vibrations. And the camera don't have any mirror lock but the mirror goes up first when you use the self-timer. Thumbs up: Build quality Very reliable All mechanical and battary is is only for the light meter. Viewfinder Thumbs down: Quite Heavy Noisy Mercury battery Want to help
