Note: the Taron Eye is a different camera.
Available from c.1962,[1] the Eyemax from Taron is a 35mm rangefinder camera with a coupled selenium lightmeter. Its appearance is quite striking with a row of eight windows covered with slightly cylindrical lenses, which would tend to shape meter sensitivity to approximate the long axis of the film frame.
It was available with a 1.8/45 or a 2.8/45 Taronar lens. The shutter could be a Citizen MXV or a Copal MXV.
