3. This is a vintage Gossen Sixon exposure meter, a specialized light meter used by photographers and cinematographers. The device measures the amount of light in a scene to determine the correct shutter speed and the correct aperture for optimal exposure. The Gossen Sixon is a selenium meter, which means it uses a selenium cell to measure light. The user sets the film speed via a knob and then aims the meter at the subject to perform the light measurement. By turning the knob until a diagonal line aligns with the needle of the instrument, the user can read the correct combination of shutter speed and aperture.

Brand and model: It is an Asahi Pentax, a 35mm SLR from the Japanese manufacturer Asahi Optical Company, which later became Pentax Corporation and is now part of Ricoh Imaging Corp. Historical significance: The Pentax series, introduced in 1957, was highly influential and set the standard for the design of 35mm SLR cameras worldwide.

A remote shutter release is a mechanical cable with a button at one end and a threaded connection at the other end, which is screwed into the camera's shutter button.
