A small, lightweight Japanese viewfinder camera (not a rangefinder) with distance marked in feet. The entire back slides off the camera body in order to insert and remove film. The chromed linkage at the bottom translates the take-up spool's rotation to linear motion to cock the shutter.

The focus ring is marked at a distance of about 10 feet, in the color used for f/8, to give a focus range of about 7 to 25 feet. This is good for most street scenes.
