Having a soft spot on... - small analogue viewfinder cameras without any electronic, light meter or other technical device asking for batteries.

These small, vintage, simple and mostly forgotten cameras above the toy camera level have a special appeal to me. They offer only view features and it is often a challange to master the photographical situation. Mostly they give you two or four shutter speeds, bulb mode included, cable release, tripod thread and luckily apertures from 2.8/3.5 to 16/22 and a manual focussing based on estimation. Experience has shown that they are the most resistant to the ravages of time and generally still work today, even though some of them have been used for more than half a century!
