Petri Micro MF-1 35mm Camera

Found this 35mm SLR at the Salvation Army today for $10.00. It came with the two lenses, a flash, carry case and a shutter release cable. It is in wonderful shape (just missing the name badge above the lens) and is in perfect working order.

From what I can find out on the Net, it was made back in 1977 and has an aluminum cast body. It feels really solid and has that great SLR snapping sound when you release the shutter. A nice addition to the collection!

A Petri? I never heard the name before - looks great!

I never heard of it before, either. But, I guess it was a pretty popular brand of camera, back in the 70s. I haven't gotten around to trying it out yet. I'm still waiting for my rolls of film, which I shot over the winter, to come back from the photo lab.
David.
