#43 Hanimex 110 FL Tele

Em português 

This camera was made in the very early 80's commissioned by Hanimex, probably to Haking of Hong-Kong.

It's a camera like many of it's time.

It has a sliding lens that transforms the focal distance in a small tele, hence the name of the camera.
The film advance/shutter cocking is "a la" Kodak, by a thumb slider on the camera bottom.

The electronic flash is turned on/off with a small slider and is powered by two AA batteries.
Uses 110 film cartridges, allowing a maximum of 20 13 x 17 mm exposures.

#42 Fujica Pocket 300

Em português 

The Fujica Pocket 300 was one of the first models of subminiature cameras presented by Fuji.

They came to this market only in 1976, when Kodak and Agfa were already well established, nevertheless Fuji presented innovative solutions and very well built cameras.

They presented the first zoom camera on this format, the Fujica pocket 330.

Specifications of Fujica Pocket 300:

• Aluminium body
• 26.5mm f5.6-11 lens
• Fixed-focus
• Exposure control by weather symbols 
• Built-in UV filter
• Fixed shutter speed: 1/125 
• Hot shoe for electronic flash
• Soft shutter release and provision for remote release
• 110 cassette film 

This camera camera does not use the film perforations to cock the shutter, so it can be reloaded with 16 mm film. As I have the feeling that Santa is going to bring me a set of film film slitters I'll be able to put it to use.

MERRY XMAS
