Fodor C-35 on Display (01) - a photo on Flickriver

Fodor C-35
Japanese 35mm viewfinder camera produced by Tougodo for Dutch importer Fodor.
Produced probably c1963.

~~Exact manufactor unknown. More information welcome !~~

This camera is rather low spec'd.
Fodor Lens f=5cm is fixed focus, probably meniscus type.
Diaphragma ring setting with 3 symbols, lineair though without any steps.
2 (unknown) Shutterspeeds.

In many respects similar to other Tougodo cameras like the Meikai EL, Meikai ELX and Meisupii Power EL. Big difference is the filmtranport. The Fodor has a thumbwheel on the back while the others have a transport key on top.
Extremely similar to the Meikai HC35.

Very unusual (so long after ww2) is the notation of focal length in cm rather then mm.

There exist photos of a later type. All black model and with a New Fodor Lens f=50mm
