This is a first class camera design and the camera is beautifully made. The camera takes twelve exposures on 120 size film, which is readily available from most good camera shops. Automatic frame spacing is incorporated into the film winding system.
The camera is equipped with a coated Zeiss Novar f3.5 anastigmat lens in a Prontor 1-1/300B VXM shutter. The shutter settings are seen through peep-windows on the face of the shutter. A pc-synch socket is provided on the side of the camera body and has XM settings for bulb and electronic flash, and a V setting for the delayed action timer. The reflex viewing hood incorporates a folding magnifier.
Unusually for a twin lens reflex, the camera is equipped with a built in exposure meter with the needle visible in the reflex finder. The meter cell is housed under a hinged cover above the viewing lens. In use the meter reading is transferred to the inside of the focussing knob, from which the exposure settings may be read off. A film speed dial is incorporated.
