The final, 1970 version of Kowa's SE series of 35mm SLRs, offering open aperture metering and interchangeable lenses, but using a complex behind-the-lens leaf shutter arrangement. The SET-R2 replaced the 1968 SET-R. The differences between the models were minimal: the SET-R2 gained a black plastic advance lever cap, a film reminder at the base of the rewind crank, and an all black f/1.8 50mm standard lens in place of the old chrome edged f/1.9.
Lenses available included an f/2.8 35mm, f/3.5 100mm, f/4 135mm, and f/4 200mm.
The shutter is a Seiko SLV with speeds of 1 - 1/500, plus B and a self-timer.
The TTL meter has a film speed range of 10 - 800 ASA, and employs a viewfinder centre-the-needle control, with both the shutter speed and aperture settings being coupled.
The viewscreen combines matte Fresnel screen and condenser. with a micro-prism centre spot.
There is a single flash terminal and an M/X selection switch. The x-sync speed is 1/30.
