Pentacon Prakti II

 

35mm view-finder camera. Three details are worth mentioning:
- surprisingly heavy (die-cast frame inside)
- the user  has only to make a choice among 6 symbols. The lightmeter does the rest (automatic).
- an electric motor is advancing the film and cocking the shutter automatically after every shot. Backwinding, however, is manual.
