The Halina 35-600 is a compact 35mm viewfinder camera manufactured by Haking. It has many features in common with the better known Olympus Trip 35 but uses a battery operated CdS cell.
It has a Halina Anastigmat 40mm f/2.8 lens, which can be zone focused using four pictograms of different subjects.
Exposure is controlled automatically via a CdS cell within the lens's filter ring in automatic mode (marked A). If light levels are too low in automatic mode a the shutter will not fire and a red flag appears in the viewfinder. As the CdS cell sits within the filter ring , it will adapt to any filter used. The metering system uses a now defunct PX625 mercury cell, although there are modern solutions.
Alternatively, the aperture may be set manually (from f/2.8 to f/22) for use with flash. Both a hot shoe and a PC socket are provided. With a battery in place in aperture select mode the setting only determines the widest possible aperture size as the CdS system will still limit aperture opening depending on light levels. Without a battery the aperture will open to the designated size allowing the camera to be used as a fully manual camera.
The speed of film is set by a ring around the lens (25-400 ASA in steps). Film is advanced using a thumbwheel on the rear of the camera. The film compartment is opened by latch on side of camera at the base. There is a cable release thread point and standard tripod socket.
The Halina 35-600 was sold by Dixons in the UK as the Prinz Saturn 35 Auto. The Halina 35-600 would appear to be the successor of the Halina 500 (also known as the Cortina 500).
