Halina

An old friend is heading off for a new life in Vienna.

He's a photographer and this weekend decided to sell off not only his car but some framed prints and his collection of vintage Chinese and Russian Rangefinder cameras.

He had a few of these Halina cameras - made in Hong Kong around 1959 they were copies of early Leica Rangefinder cameras.

I bought this one because I loved the way it looked - Michael says it actually works too so I might slap some of your actual film in it and apply that "Sunny 16 rule" (check the forums for more on that) - although here in Scotland right now maybe more of the "Dreich 4 rule" might be more in keeping...

Good-luck Michael!
