  • Viewfinder: Bright-line with fixed parallax markings..
  • Focus: Manual - scaled in feet.
  • Lens: 45mm FC Halinar Anastigmat. Appears to be 3 elements.
  • Close Focus: About 3 feet.
  • Diaphragm: f/2.8 stopping down to about f/16.

  • Cable Release: Standard screw-in shutter release.
  • Filter Size: 43mm screw fit.
  • Size: 126 x 86 x 70mm (W x H x D).
