It was made by the Japanese company Chinon (it was sold as the Chinon CS with different styling). The camera uses easy to find M42 screw-mount lenses (as used on Pentax Spotmatic and many other cameras). The included Auto-Soligor 50mm f1.8 is a nice sharp lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe camera is very easy to use: a switch on the side turns on a light meter reading and depth-of-field preview. Another thing I really like about it is how easy it is to do double\/multiple exposures--there's a dedicated switch on the top of the camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe camera and lens were tested with film and performed very well.
