The Yashica Samurai X4.0 is a fully automatic half-frame autofocus SLR camera made by Kyocera. Its unique design makes it the optimal still camera for people who never made photographs but know to handle a modern compact video camera. It's designed for one-handed operation. It makes exposures in half 35mm frame format, allowing to make 72 instead of 36 images on one film. It offers 4 exposure programmes: autoflash, daylight, night, and night flash. Time and date can be enlighted onto the film.
