Posted by Bengt Köhler Sandberg 2013-09-13 Introduced: 1959 Specs: Lens: Rodenstock Reomar 45mm f/2.8 Closest Focus: 1m (3.3ft) Aperture: f/2.8 - f/22 Shutter: 1/500 to 1/15 + B (Bulb) Leaf shutter from Pronto-LK Light meter: Yes, coupled Selenium cell (match needle in the viewfinder) Battery: None Flash: Yes, PC sync connection Weight: 530g Self-timer Dubbel exposure Takes 135 film 24×36 mm negative size. Viewfinder: One that works very well and its a little bigger then most cameras of this type hade around the same time. Which I would call about medium size today and it has good brighness. Info: Match needle for the light meter. Image quality Build quality Just amazing!! Great build quality, solid as a rock and very nice feel to it. Conclusion Hard not to like a beautiful camera like this! And it's a great one at most point like build quality and feel. Image quality is also nice and sharp. Renders very well with good contrast, bokeh and flare. You do however have some corner softness and it gets a little soft wide open. A camera that looks great in a camera collection and can also be just as fun to use. Thumbs up: Build quality, look and feel Image quality, renders, bokeh and flare Thumbs down: Corner softness at bigger apertures Want to help
