Feature summary
- M42 mount
- TTL average light meter, with LEDs
- open aperture metering
- shutter speed up to 1/2000 s
Pros and Cons
Pros
- very bright viewfinder (probably next brightest to Bessaflex)
- LEDs of the light meter are visible in adverse light conditions
- open aperture metering (works with Fujinon EBC lenses)
- very compact
Cons
- open aperture makes the M42 mount non standard. Some of the non-Fuji lenses might not be able to get infinity focus.
- metering is cumbersome if non-Fuji lenses are used. You need to set the camera in "manual" mode where the aperture is closed - step back from automatic lenses
- slow flash synchronisation
