Interesting in two ways. This camera is very much like my first camera, a Fujica half frame with “guess the distance” focus, some 54 years ago.
Second, film can be scanned at processing time and place, and 35mm film is about equivalent to a 24 megapixel digital image. Some say better [0]. Film rarely is affected by dust, and I have had a bunch of sensor cleanings. I change lenses in a new unused ziplock bag now.
I am getting a new scanner for my old (out of this world) color slides, mainly 2¼ square, because 35mm. slides can be 1:1 imaged by a 24 megapixel digital camera with about the same quality.
4x5 and other view cameras will last forever (if you maintain the bellows) because they are as simple as a clothespin (other than the shutters)
