Chronology of cameras Ricoh
This variant of the Ricohflex Diamond or Diacord L differs from the one already presented on the site by its front panel.
It also has the distinction of having a distance scale in Feet and Meters identical to the Ricohmatic 225.
The main differences between the Diamond L and the Diamond G are for the L : the light meter, a Seikosha shutter a little more efficient down to 1/500 th sec and half the blades (5) in the diaphragm.
There is no protection against multiple exposures.
The Ricohflex Diamonds are also called Dia or Diacord.
