In this article, we would like to introduce the exposure meter receiving window of MAMIYA’s rangefinder camera released in 1959.
MAMIYA 35 Ruby (Reference product)
The light-receiving window of the exposure meter is located on the camera body head above the lens.
It is located alongside the viewfinder window.

A large number of windows with a collection of transparent, light-accessible round shapes are installed side by side.

The light is received through the light-receiving window, and the response figure can be seen on the exposure meter on top of the top of the body.

Looking at the light-receiving window from a different angle than before, the round design is more visible.
