1960s Vintage 35mm Film Camera Restoration

The Meika 35 vintage film camera is a very basic 35mm film viewfinder camera produced by the Japanese company Tougodo. It has a 50mm fixedfocus lens. The aperture is controlled via a threestep ring (for bright light, medium light, poor light indicated by icons). It has only 1 shutter speed. The top and bottomcovers are plain aluminum. One of Tougodo s Meisupii series of stylish modern toy rangefinder cameras from the 1960s. The Meika (should it even be pronounced as Leica ) is distinct from the many variations of Meikai cameras (ST, SL, EL, etc). This old camera, you can see it was kept in a very bad environment. After the restore was done, I tried taking pictures from it. I am quite impressed with the photos it brings. You will see photos at the END of the VIDEO. I hope you like my work and the video.
