I felt in love with this one ! Found on eBay for the ridicolous price of 30 Euro, it took about one month to be delivered to my home from Ukraina.

It’s a FANTASTIC camera ! I might tell you  the feeling of having it in your hands, I might show you the pics it takes but I’ll never be able to tell you the smell. Old mechanical oil smell mixed with it’s leather case: a magic.
