Isn't there also a solar cell arrangement in that front glass area? The light meter would need at least a little electricity to operate. I bought one of these out of a junk pile about 20 years ago for Y500 and then Ricoh serviced it for Y10,000 and it worked pretty well. It's cool that it's fully automatic with no batteries... and it has a solar cell, right? - LHS

@lylehsaxon yes, what i meant to say is that you dont need to buy extra batteries for it, the selenium cell in the ricoh itself is one of the most longest living on compared to other cameras. but thanks for pointing out this point, i should have said it in the video, by any chance if i make another one ill include this detail :)

@Mijonju I never actually looked it up before, but Wikipedia says: "The electric part of such a meter is an electromagnetic measuring instrument which is connected to the anode and cathode of a selenium photo cell that produces more or less electric power when exposed to more or less light." I've always hated batteries running out, so that was my favorite aspect to this camera - fully automatic with no batteries! Now I have to find it. I don't know where I stored it! - LHS
