I am selling a Yashica Atoron, a "spy" type camera sold by Yashica in the 1960's. This camera has the important advantage of accepting Minox standard film cartridges, which are still sold. The camera appears to be in working condition, but I have not film tested it. The build quality is actually quite nice, approaching that of Minox standards IMO. The shutter fires (with a "whoosing" sound, which apparently is normal for the Atoron), the lens looks clean, the viewfinder may have slight haze, but not enough to be an serious issue. The meter responds to light.

Included is an original leather case. A small piece of leather appears to be missing from the end of the case, but it otherwise does a nice job of protecting the camera. This could be a lot of fun to test out and experiment with if you are into subminiature photography and Minox scene.

Price: $35 plus shipping
