AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Canon Demi (c. 1963-64) is an excellently designed high-quality camera that is very suitable for carrying in someone’s jacket pocket.
The Demi camera is a " half-frame " camera, which means that with a 35mm film of 36 exposures the double, i.e., 72 exposures, can be made.
The Demi has an f/2.8 28mm lens (or 42mm full-frame equivalent) and a minimum focusing distance of 0.8 meters.
The shutter speeds range from 1/30 s to 1/250 s.
The built-in selenium meter needle still works a bit (it only responds to very bright light sources, but that's not a problem—the Demi can also operate without a light meter or external light meter.
The aperture and shutter speeds of the Canon Demi are linked, which means that if the user selects f/2.8, the corresponding shutter speed is automatically 1/30 s.
f/4 is 1/45 sec, f/5.6 is 1/60 sec, f/8 is 1/90 sec, f/11 is 1/125 sec, f/16 is 1/190 sec and f/22 is 1/250 sec.
The distance regulation is also quite straightforward. The symbol 'berg' ranges from 15 m to infinity, the symbol 'mensen' ranges from 3 m to and including 15 m, and the symbol '1 mens' ranges from 0.8 m to and including 3 m.
The camera is highly regarded for its very compact housing and attractive design.
Will be shipped with a Track & Trace number and insurance.
NOTE:
I always ship my goods with a Track & Trace number and insurance, to cover potential damage and theft.
Please note that for these reasons, shipping costs may be somewhat higher.
If you cannot agree with this, please do not place any bids.
With thanks in advance.
