The '''C2''' is a manual-focus 35mm [[SLR]] made by [[Cosina]] and using the popular [[K mount lenses|K-mount bayonet]] for lens interchangeability. The camera offers a choice between manual match-LED exposure settings and aperture-priority autoexposure. In auto mode, the electronically-timed shutter offer speeds from 1/1000 sec down to 8 seconds. Flash sync is at 1/60th sec. (The similar-looking [[Cosina C1s]] has an all-mechanical shutter with a 1/2000 sec. top speed and flash sync at 1/125.) Pressing the transparent red button on the front of the camera activates a electronic self-timer delay of 10 seconds, with an indicator lamp whose flashing speed becomes more rapid in the final 2 seconds. | The '''C2''' is a manual-focus 35mm [[SLR]] made by [[Cosina]] and using the popular [[K mount lenses|K-mount bayonet]] for lens interchangeability.

The C2 is a manual-focus 35mm SLR made by Cosina and using the popular K-mount bayonet for lens interchangeability. The camera offers a choice between manual match-LED exposure settings and aperture-priority autoexposure. In auto mode, the electronically-timed shutter offer speeds from 1/1000 sec down to 8 seconds. Flash sync is at 1/60th sec. (The similar-looking Cosina C1s has an all-mechanical shutter with a 1/2000 sec. top speed and flash sync at 1/125.) Pressing the transparent red button on the front of the camera activates a electronic self-timer delay of 10 seconds, with an indicator lamp whose flashing speed becomes more rapid in the final 2 seconds.
The features of the Cosina C2 strongly resemble those of the Cosina-manufactured Canon T60.
