The CA-4 and CA-4s are automatic exposure 35mm film SLR cameras produced by Chinon.
They are very similar cameras, but S model uses a mechanical self-timer. They uses a electromagnetic Seiko focal plane shutter that has stepless speeds from 1 to 1/1000 sec. Along with the automatic exposure mode there is a bulb and a X electronic flash sync mode that operates a maximum of 1/100 of a sec. The metering system is a TTL center weighted system capable of using 25 to 3200 ASA films.
The finder has a split image microprism in the center as a focusing aid. There is a shutter speeds scale on the left with markings for 1-1/8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, 500, 100 along with over and underexposure indicators.
