Show original

The Minox EL is a legendary ultra-compact 35mm film camera designed in Germany, produced from approximately 1978 to 1981, and known for combining pocket-sized portability with surprisingly high image quality. It is one of the smallest full-frame film cameras ever made, yet it offers aperture-priority automatic exposure together with manual aperture selection and a very sharp lens, making it highly popular among film enthusiasts who want a discreet but capable everyday film camera. It features a high-quality Minox Color-Minotar 35mm f/2.8 lens, well known for its sharpness and beautiful analog rendering.

This specific camera is in excellent condition both optically and externally, as shown in the high-definition close-up photos taken with a professional lens. The body is clean and well preserved, and the lens is clear.

The camera is fully tested and everything works as it should, including shutter cocking and firing, shutter speeds (which appear accurate), ISO dial operation, and smooth functioning of both the front aperture and focus wheels.

The camera originally uses a PX27 5.6V mercury battery, which is no longer available today, like many older film camera batteries. To operate the camera, I used 4x LR44 (or SR44) batteries, which are widely available and held securely inside a custom thick plastic battery adapter that will be included with the camera. The light meter has been tested with a professional external light meter and is accurate.

A wonderful example of classic German engineering with an amazingly sharp lens, ideal for everyday film photography, travel, street shooting, or collectors alike.
