Meikai C35C
The Meikai C35C is a 35mm film camera made by the Japanese company Tougodo.
It is a simple and cheap viewfinder camera with a 50mm fixed-focus lens. The aperture is controlled via a three-step ring (for bright light, medium light, poor light indicated by icons). It has only 1 shutter speed. The top- and bottom-covers are either plain aluminum or black finished.
Many things, including the optics and the fake selenium cell, are similar to the Meikai EL.
A big difference is the film transport. It has a thumbwheel on the back while the Meikai EL has a transport key on top.
Also the frame counter is clearly different.
The Meikai HC35 is another very similar camera and might even be the forerunner of the Meikai C35C as it has an older looking model rewind knob[1]. Also the Fodor C-35, a camera sold by Dutch wholesaler Fodor, is very similar.
The Meikai FC seems to be the same camera[1] but now with a more luxuary chrome rewinder knob.
