A Capable Japanese Built Camera...

A very versatile and professional 35mm film camera. It does have a light meter. The viewfinder can be removed like a Nikon F for example. This was a serious camera in its days, it just never really made to the top of the charts.

Konica Auto S2 Big Brother... A larger rangefinder from the 70's. The S2 dwarves cameras like the Olympus 35. This camera has an i ntegrated lens shade which is an unusual feature. It also has a large knob for smooth focusing, also a bit unusual. It can run without a battery in full manual mode, the battery powers the light meter on top . This camera handles nicely and the rangefinder is very bright and very pleasant and easy to use. I really like this camera even if the body is on the large size. Manufacturer Konica Name Auto Model S2 Year -- Type Fixed-lens rangefinder, manual and auromatic modes Film 35mm Lens Hexanon, 45mm 1:1,8 Shutter speeds B-1-1/2-1/4-1/8-1/15-1/30-1/60-1/125-1/250-1/500 Apertures f 1,8 - f 16 Light meter yes

Seagull 4-A

Seagull 4-A 202 TLR A Nice Camera As I have said before, I am not a big fan of Twin Lens Reflex cameras but I must say they are nice looking. I just find the perspective is odd even though the sharpness is excellent generally speaking. Also, they're a little clumsy to carry and operate... I guess I could get used to them, they do have their charm. This is Model 4-A is the pro version, the 4-B is the budget consumer version. This Seagull uses 6x6, 120 film (A mask may be available for 6x4.5cm). It has an exposure help diagram on a knob on the right. It has a leaf shutter so can synch flash at any speed. It is basically a copy of a Rolleiflex. Manufacturer Shangai Seagull Camera Ltd., Shangai, China Name Seagull  Model 4-A Year 1968  Type Twin Lens Reflex Film 120 (6x6cm) Lens Haiou-31,1:3,5/75mm (lower taking lens) Shutter speeds B-1/300 + self-timer Apertures f 3.5 - f 22 Light meter  no
