a pentacon penti II half frame camera from the 60s. It's goooold. and it uses long discontinued east german SL film cartridges. and the exposure meter seems to be stuck. but otherwise it's really cute. love the art deco styling.

I have read they just last a few years maybe if you don't store your camera in a dark place/box/case.

But: awesome camera!
