My favorite camera! Design, hardness, sound and...smell!:) Camera with soul! Also irritating frame counter! Every time when packing or unpacking the camera, counter disrupts mechanical, or even if it glances with clothes or something else. I never know how many frames left...
Also, battery cap...lost after one week...:)
Otherwise, 10/10. Camera for people who love photography!
@forbiddenforadults when you load up film in camera and close back door of it, you need to take a shot about 2 times and than it will load undamaged by light cadre.
when you load a film, close door,take 2 cadre, you need to turn upper ring, where counter is situated, that number 1 will be opposite with triangle. what it means? it means that from here your counter will working correctly and you will know how many cadres left
@MLH there's a small white arrow right next to the filmtransport arm. It points to the image number. It's hardly visible in the video. When you hold the camera in your hands you can see it without any problems. At 0:11 the image counter is at 26.
that sound gave me a boner.

Great camera but the battery cap is kinda loose. I lost batteries somewhere in Frankfurt-am-Main. And no replacement for the cap is available. :(

@duckingaunt these cameras are probably cheaper to buy a whole new one than any replacement cap.
I find them a bit limited in shutter sppeds but they are built like a tank.
No worries about damaging your camera.
