Chronology of cameras Ricoh
Traduction de Thomas Mann.
Primarily a simple camera for the amateur or beginner user. Nevertheless, it is well finished and provides completely automatic operation of both speed AND aperture. in manual mode speed and aperture are handled in the usual manner, by adjusting the two sliding knobs below the lens. Their settings are visible through a small window on top of the lens. I can't think what purpose is served by the little red flag which shows in the viewfinder when the shutter release is pressed...
To the best of my knowledge this was Ricoh's first SLR.
