Ricoh Auto Half EF2 – 35mm Half-frame camera

A desirable Ricoh Auto Half EF2, one of the final and most advanced models of Ricoh’s famous Auto Half series, produced in Japan during the mid–late 1970s. This camera represents the peak of Japanese half-frame point-and-shoot design, combining compact size, bold styling, and a built-in electronic flash—a major upgrade over earlier Auto Half models. The EF2 is especially appreciated by collectors and film photographers for its distinctive industrial design and economical half-frame format, allowing up to 72 exposures on a standard 36-exposure roll. Film format: 35mm half-frame (18×24 mm) Lens: Ricoh 25mm f/2.8 (fixed) Exposure: Fully automatic Film speed range: ASA 50–400 Focus: Fixed focus Conditions: Good condition. Simple operation has been confirmed. Flash is not working. Batteries may have deteriorated, please prepare a charger or new battery in advance. A genuine 1970s Japanese half-frame classic, the Ricoh Auto Half EF2 is both a collectible object and a characterful analog camera. A fine addition to any vintage camera collection or a stylish entry into half-frame film photography. Method of Shipment FedEx or Japan Post NOTICE The lot will be carefully packaged and shipped by FedEx or Japan Post. Delivery usually takes 1–2 weeks. The shipping method may vary depending on the item price and size. Sometimes Customs or the delivery company in your country may contact you by phone or email for clearance.
