__NOTOC__

The '''Petri E.Bn''' is a Japanese fixed-lens 35mm [[rangefinder camera|rangefinder]] introduced  by [[Petri|Kuribayashi/Petri]] in 1960. It features a built-in uncoupled [[Selenium meter|selenium lightmeter]], with a prominent circular sensor cell on the front of the camera's top housing. It was the first [[Petri]] to have one. McKeown describes the camera as a '''Color Super''', with the meter fitted.<ref>{{McKeown12}} p579.</ref>
The camera could be equipped with a Petri Orikkor 2.8/45 or 1.9/45 lens. The shutter is a Petri Carperu MXV or a Copal SV; either is [[flash sync|synchronised]] for flash, and has a self-timer. It has a [[cold shoe]].

The rangefinder and viewfinder are combined, with a brightline frame. It has the green filter over the rangefinder spot that many Petri rangefinders have.
