Chronology of cameras Ricoh
This big Ricoh camera is a 126 as its name suggests.
We are far from the light plastic devices of Kodak and other manufacturers. This all-metal model weighs 521 grams without battery or film!
The Auto 126 presented is one of the first in the Ricoh range since it uses AG1 bulbs in its flash which surmounts the viewfinder. Thereafter, version 126 C Automatic will use flashcubes.
