The Minox name carries James Bond cache and the Minox 35 line have the honor of being the smallest production 35mm camera made.  When sold in the 80's the ML 35 was a high end and expensive item.  These days they still have a enthusiastic band of followers but they also have a reputation for bad electronics.  Due to the digital revolution Minox 35's are not fetching high prices any more - if you can find one in working condition they still make great pocket cameras that will give far better results than a [[LOMO]].  The 35 ML's lens is a 35mm f2.8 and it is [[scale focusing]]. It's exposure system is automatic or aperture priority.

The Minox name carries James Bond cachet and the Minox 35 line has the honor of being the smallest production full-frame 35mm camera made. When sold in the 1980s the Minox 35 ML was a high end and expensive item. These days they still have a enthusiastic band of followers but they also have a reputation for bad electronics. Due to the digital revolution Minox 35's are not fetching high prices any more - if you can find one in working condition they still make great pocket cameras that will give far better results than a LOMO. The 35 ML's lens is a 35mm f2.8 and it is scale focusing. Its exposure system is automatic or aperture priority.

The Minox 35 ML bears a very strong resemblance to the Balda CA 35; both cameras, as well as the rest of the Minox 35 and 110 line, were manufactured by Balda Kamera-Werk in Bünde, West Germany.
