Description from the seller

A beautiful camera to look at. It no longer powers on.

including:
- strap

Production: Manufactured by Kyocera (Japan) in the 1990s, as part of the SLR range developed by Yashica/Zeiss.
Focus: Although it is a manual focus camera, the RX features a TTL phase-detection system that confirms focus with a digital signal in the viewfinder ("Focus Found").
Features: Equipped with automatic film transport (loading, advancing, rewinding), various exposure modes (program, aperture-priority, shutter-priority, manual) and a viewfinder with 95% coverage.
Design: The design shows similarities to the professional RTS III, with a solid housing.
Lenses: Uses the Contax/Yashica (C/Y) mount, which provides access to the high-quality Carl Zeiss lenses.
Has a slippy mirror.
