Rollei 35

This was the most compact camera produced for the 35 mm format. Olympus XA later follwed the this trend. This camera has a leaf shutter, and diaphragm mechanism that are both controlled from the body. When the collapsible lens is pulled out of the body, and locked in place, the shutter, and diaphragm are both engaged with their mechanism on the body. There is an accurate CDS light meter that is coupled with both the shutter, and aperture dials in front. It's a nice mechanical design that the designer placed both dials at the same plane to easily link both dials together with the galvo coil assembly on top. This camera is a real joy to use on travels.
