An interesting 35mm SLR marketed by Vivitar but based on the Cosina CSR. Its main claim to fame is the odd accessory autoexposure unit, which plugs into the camera and rotates the shutter speed dial with a motor. But the XC-2 has admirers for its ability to use many M42 lenses; its double-exposure facility; its high 1/4000 second maximum shutter speed; and its built-in spot metering option.
