The Petri Color 35 E is a small 35mm, fully-automatic, viewfinder camera introduced as a simpler, less expensive version of the Petri Color 35 in 1971. In place of the match-needle metering of the original, the 35E has program automatic exposure with no direct control except via the film speed dial. The only exposure indication is a red flag in the viewfinder if the exposure is below 1/30 @ f/2.8. It uses a push-pull mechanism to extend/retract the lens, a simple lens twist mechanism to set focus, and a conventional rewind crank.
