Pentax Auto 110
My latest acquisition from a Berlin flea market. Probably the smallest true SLR with interchangeable lenses ever produced. Looks like a toy but doesn't feel like one. The motor drive works but the battery cover (a notoriously weak point) has lost the lugs which held it in place. There is no user control over exposure and the film wind lever rather strangely has to be turned twice. Still, nicer than either the Minolta or Rollei 110. Pity that the film size gives crappy pictures.
