Much worse than I expected. I'm tempted to use software to fix things. Mostly I like to de-saturate the photos. Maybe I could get a pin up model to work with this summer. The camera seems to work well in bright light. Should we have a group? Are a lot of people using these little cameras?
A toy camera with 45mm "Optical Glass Lens". The construction is quite solid when compared to the TIME magazine camera, noticeably having a metal back cover and getting similar weight without gluing a chunk of lead to the bottom. The film plane is curved to compensate for the field curvature of the simple meniscus lens.
It has a single speed rotary shutter like those in the cheap box cameras. The aperture can be changed continuously from F8 to F16 by rotating a metal plate with slot of variable width in it. The focus is fixed. Don't expect sharp images from this toy. LOMO fans, however, may find it interesting.
The shutter doesn't need to be cocked. However, there is a double exposure prevention mechanism keeping the shutter from firing repetitively. There is an easily way to allow multiple exposure: hold the little film rewind tab and turn the film advance wheel backward (yes it can do that) for two teeth, then release the tab and turn the wheel forward. The wheel will stop at the original position and the shutter can be fired again. Turning backward more than two teeth should work fine, but less that the forward turn won't stop until the next frame is advanced.
Other incarnations of this camera exist, such as the Yunon DX-3. They seem to be all closely related to the Meikai FC, which itself is a cheap derivative of the old and much better built Meikai EL.

She knew that it was a toy camera, so she posed differently than usual.
These were all shot "Bruce Gilden" style with the flash at the end of my left arm about three feet to the left of the camera. The Holga is difficult to use this way because of the the side mounted shutter lever.
Shot taken at dusk. So you can see the dark background result of the Holga shutter speed with the flash.
did some experimenting with Velvia and the diana. mostly got underexposed crap. but I liked this one.

When I bought this from my local OP shop, it was not working or battery was dead (I thought). But I did not know its shutter flexible cable was cut. I had to conduct microscopic surgery replacing one section of broken flexible cable. I had spent 2 days opening closing this camera. I had checked exposure and focus and it was fine!
What a great camera! But this camera is not really mini...it is very fat! Name should be Konica "Big Big"
Here is a Suntone MM500 Deluxe-I toy camera with hot shoe for trade. You turn a ring on the lens barrel for the lighting--it has 100 on one side and 200 on the other with different lighting situations. It's kind of heavy for a toy camera, but takes decent pictures. It cames with a case & box!

I'll trade for some expired 35mm or 120 film, slide or print film or a fun toy camera. I'm open! I'm just cleaning out and finding homes for things I haven't used in awhile.
Made in China , 1994 . Instant-type camera ; 5 pictures can be introduced in the back . Pushing the blue button produces them one by one through the slot in the front .
