The Recorder is a 35mm half frame point and shot camera introduced in 1984 by Konica. In some market it is known as the AA-35. In the closed position, the camera is shaped like a cassette recorder (maybe that's how it gets the name?). Unlike most other half frame cameras, the film goes from bottom to top so the picture frame is in the landscape orientation.
