AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Minox 35 GT, introduced in 1981, continued Minox's successful range of 35mm compact cameras, reputedly the smallest full-frame 35mm cameras ever made. The lens retracts into the camera body when closed, fully opening the cover activates the battery. Exposure is automatic, aperture priority. Different models in the Minox 35 range were identified by shutter release buttons in differing colours: the GT is easily identified by its orange shutter release button.

The GT improved features of its predecessors, the EL and the GL. It introduced an electronic self-timer, with a flashing LED above the camera's name.

The camera has been quickly tested and are working, there may be hidden defects. The camera has in the set of box and Garantiekarte. I did not check camera with film. The Item exhibits minor signs of usage and wear. You might notice small imperfections such as minor wear on the plastic parts. These are minimal and don't detract from the overall appearance and functionality of the item. Look carefully photos. Photos attached to the listing are part of this description. Use battery one No EPX 27 for camera usage. I was using four AG13 batteries for testing.

I describe to the best of my knowledge and belief. Since this is a private sale, I do not provide any warranty and do not offer a right of return- consider this before bidding!
