Hi Photo Gurus!
Besides my pro-dslr I do own a Lomo LC-A for many years now. I probably have thousands of images in my collection...
I'm now wondering if there is some vintage camera (possibly built a bit more "solid") with similar features:
- very small
- 35mm standard film
- Automatic shutter speed (I made some great Lomo-photos where I had to push the release button for 20 minutes...)
- A possible lens cover can be opened very quickly
- No auto-focus. Just a quick estimation of the distance will do.
- Manual film transport
- Wide angle lens (The LC-A features a 32mm lens)
The Rollei 35 looks just great and the build quality seems to be perfect. But there is no automatic shutter speed.
The Minox 35 seems to be a candidate as well. Does anyone know about the shutter-time behaviour and the build quality of this camera? And I think I don't like the lens cover - I think I can't be as fast as with my lomo if I have to open that thing.
Thanks, Gregor
