Antiques at Battlesbridge with MINOX 35GT

Minox 35mm cameras are trouble prone and some models batteries no longer exist, but when they work the work exceptionally well. I always keep a couple in my collection. I'm using a GT and the Touring model, but the one with the best lens ever was an old EL that I stupidly sold. What is your opinion pentasxpete?

SO FAR I have been LUCKY with the Shutter Problem and the LENS is very Sharp -- I can get 16x12 inch Darkroom Prints off on B&W film No Problemo !

That mirrors my findings about these little gems. I have a Rollei 35 with Tessar also, but I actually like carrying, using and the results of the little Minox better. If you got one that works don't ever sell it. Yours looks very sharp indeed.

It was a GIFT from an Old Gent who met me when I was on a Coach Holiday to Whitby, North Yorkshire -- he saw me with an Old Classic and said he had some Old Camereras in his Loft and sent them just for price of Postage -- I also got a Kodak Brownie flash with the Minox and some other stuff which I can't remember.
