Chronology of cameras Cosina

Traduction de Alphonse Khuu

In 1978, at Photokina, the 35 FR is the most advanced model of the Cosina 35mm compact cameras range.
It is an automatic camera with the aperture priority (ie you choose the aperture and the camera automatically adjusts the shutter speed according to the exposure metering). The shutter automatically operates from 1/64 to 1/360 per sec.
It is also a rangefinder.
His lens Cosinon 2.7/38mm has 5 elements.
In the viewfinder, a needle indicates the aperture, and areas of over-and under-exposure. The flash, which is powered by two 1.5 volt batteries, has a guide number of 16.
The whole is a classic camera among the compact cameras from that time.
