Petri Flex 7

The Petri Flex 7 was introduced in 1964 and has more than a passing resemblance to the Zeiss Ikon Contarex "Bullseye" camera.

 

It's claimed to be the world’s first SLR with a fully integrated cadmium sulfide light meter.

 

This link has some useful information on the camera:

I've been trying out a variety of Petri lenses in M42 and Petri breech-lock mounts. This one has a Petri mount, and is relatively unusual as it has a silver body.
