It features a very sharp Hexanon 38mm f2.8 lens, a bright easy-to-focus rangefinder, and fully automatic exposure. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe've found autoexposure rangefinders like C35 (and the competitor Minolta Hi-Matic series) are nearly as easy to use as point-and-shoots, but in our experiences, will give you a higher percentage of 'keeper' photos (a rangefinder can't be 'fooled' like a point-and-shoot's autofocus).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis C35 Automatic requires a 357 silver oxide battery (optional). The camera originally used mercury cells but in our testing the silver oxide batteries provided accurate exposures. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThis camera was film-tested and gave sharp, correctly exposed photos. The camera is in good cosmetic condition with the most noteworthy blemish being a small dent on one of the corners (see photos).
