Before loading a new film its exposure frame format can be changed from 6×6 cm to 4.5×6 cm and vice versa. Its design is a copy of an Agfa Super Isolette. The lens/shutter-unit is an old-style construction, with self-timer and all selection rings for exposure settings. Even the shutter has to be cocked with a lever on that unit. Only the shutter relase button has "a modern position" on top of the camera, and the rangefinder is coupled to the distance selection ring around the lens.
