The SLX 500 is an SLR for 35mm film from Ricoh which accepts 42mm screw-mount lenses. It dates from 1975[1] and McKeown's describes it as "a simplified version of the Ricoh Singlex TLS" [2]. The SLX 500 is an economy model lacking a self-timer and only offering shutter speeds from 1/30–1/500 second plus B. The camera requires one mercury battery to operate its exposure meter, with a match-needle display in the viewfinder. The ground glass includes a central microprism spot as a focusing aid, and the pentaprism is topped with a hot shoe.
