The Fujica ST801 is a manual SLR 35mm film camera made by Fuji in the 1970s.

Feature summary

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
