This camera is a vintage camera, 62 years old now.
That’s over half a century!
It remains in very good condition. 


Motion.
The shutter is released according to the speed.
The self-timer also works.
The viewfinder is dirty.


Lens.
The focusing ring is very heavy.
The optics have small scratches and a little dust on the lens. 

Once again, it was this time’s item that made us feel the

presence of Japanese-made vintage cameras.
