Due to the age of this camera and the nature of old light meters, we can’t guarantee that the light meter still works. This isn’t an issue as the camera will function perfectly without batteries. To meter a scene before taking a picture, we recommend using an external light meter or taking our online course to learn how to use a film camera without any external tools.

Taxes incluses. Frais d'expédition calculés lors du passage à la caisse.
