This is quite an unusual member of the Electro family - it's the Electro Half 6-TRANSISTOR - as its name implies, it is a half-frame camera. Electro Half 6-TransistorQuite what the relevance of the 6-Transistor in the name is remains a mystery to me as the camera appears to be identical to the Electro Half. It uses the superb Yashinon-DX 32mm f1.7 lens. It features a number of focusing and exposure aids, making picture taking a breeze. I particularly like the appearance of zone symbols in the viewfinder as you focus the lens. It is quite a substantial camera for a half-frame, weighing some 485g and being about 85% of the size of the Electro 35.
