Meter: Auto, aperture priority with no exposure compensation
Basics: Manual focus rangefinder with an excellent fixed 45mm 1.7 normal lens. Aperture priority auto exposure, set it and if neither the yellow under exposure light or the red overexposure light shines then you should have a proper exposure.
Quirks: The auto meter takes some getting used to, with futzing with the film speed being the only way to use exposure compensation. Doesn’t play nice with flashes even if it has a PC sync socket and an accessory shoe. It’s easy to set the self-timer by accident. Remarkably quiet operation.
