It has a coated six-element 50mm f/2.8 [[Schneider-Kreuznach]] Retina-Xenon or [[Rodenstock]] Retina-Heligon lens, stopping down to f/22. The shutter is a [[Synchro-Compur]] with speeds of 1 - 1/500 second, plus 'B'. The shutter has the [[Exposure Value]] system whereby the aperture and shutter speed controls are linked. The range is from EV 3 to 18. There is a [[self-timer]] with a delay of approx 10 seconds (selected with the 'V' setting).
  
The camera has different accessories that you can purchase which include lenses, flashlights, light meter, tripods and lots more. This is all I have so far but I am trying to find more about it.
