Mike´s cams 

last modification: february 10th, 2012

I like COSINA cameras and own some of them (also with other brandname) . They have a clear functional design, very good lenses and are very reliable. The silent models are made from solid materials: metal frame and covers and so is the weigth (up to 2kg). Lenses up to 85 mm are available. I have not recognize a real weakness. Seldom a motor was out of function due to heavy usage - normal for some other cameras. TTL Lightmeters are working fine. Nearly all silentcameras can check all filmspeeds and have additional +/-aperture correction - fine! You can use also Kodak Ektachrome 64T without any changements. Some models have sync sound connectors for those who needs sound. Silent models with 150° shutter are good forscenes with movements Sound models with 220° shutter for lowligth.......

COSINA has build Super8 cameras also for many other brandnames: (also ROLLEI,  REVUE, PORST, CARENA...)

Standard silent models needs PX14 for lightmetering - not with the new Adams64 feature!
