When my aging eyes rebelled at rangefinders, I explored a variety of 
cameras, including this pawn shop acquisition, the Exa, little brother 
of my Exacta.? The Exacta shutter expired, so I turned to the Exa for 
holiday snapshots.? It synched nicely with my Braun Hobby flash, and, 
even with its limited shutter speed, gave me excellent images.

It has an unusual rotating shutter that results in limiting the upper 
shutter speeds, but is excellent when teamed with a flash unit.
