Hi Frank, Totally auto exposure, no manual. Almost identical in size to the Hi-Matic F. Mid 70s vintage, lens is a Hexanon 38/2.8, very sharp. Has auto flash exposure based on GN and distance. I have 3 of these, very compact and reliable, manual mode would be nice though. That's what GIII's are for, though they're quite a bit heavier. This is my first decent black one, cute ain't it?
