Lumar 3.5/50 (both coated and uncoated) in an aluminium mount.
The aluminium body is covered
in brown pigskin (version 2 was covered with black leather and version
3 with black leathercloth.
Shutter speeds are engraved directly into the top plate, (around the speed
knob).
Focusing is by periscope viewfinder. Pressing a button on the periscope
housing (the vertical cylinder in the centre of the top plate) lowers a
mirror into the light path of the lens, thus allowing through the lens focusing.
Releasing the button allows the mirror to return to its original position.
The contact below the shutter button on the front of the body is for flash synchronization (M).
This model was available in black finish.
