"What have I got in my pocket?" - a photo on Flickriver

            Don't get me wrong, I love my Canonet, Spotmatic, and Ricohflex pretty much equally.  Sometimes, though, I just want to throw a camera and some film in my pocket and go.

I recently picked this up at 中興カメラBOX in Shinjuku at a very reasonable price.  After five rolls of film I find it to be a solid performer and a pleasure to use.  It's main drawbacks are limited shutter speeds (1/15 - 1/500, I think) and a minimum aperture of f3.5.  Both easily mitigated through film choice.
