Ricoh Auto Half SE | Appareil photo argentique

Ricoh Auto Half SE, testé et en état de fonctionnement.

Hello from Japan!
We provide high-quality cameras and lenses to the world.

The Ricoh Auto Half SE belongs to the charming family of half-frame cameras Ricoh began in 1960, distinguished by something almost no other camera offered: a clockwork spring motor that advances the film automatically after every shot. Wind the large dial on the front, and the camera fires and advances for a dozen frames without further attention — automatic exposure by selenium meter, fixed focus, no batteries anywhere. The SE of 1966 added a self-timer and hot shoe to the formula. Squeezing 72 shots from a 36-exposure roll in a body smaller than many phones, it has become a cult favourite among street photographers and collectors of Japanese design.
