Yashica Atoron Spy Camera

This Atoron spy camera in working order was manufactured in 1965 by Yashica Co. Ltd. of Tokyo, Japan. This subminiature camera using the 8 x 11mm "Minox" film cassette, was Japan’s answer to the very successful Minox camera. The camera has a simple pull tab to cock the shutter and makes a spring-driven, mechanical ‘whoosh’ sound when fired. The lens is a fix-focus Yashinon F 2.8-16 of 18 mm with 4 lenses. It has a permanent anti-UV filter and a removable yellow filter. The shutter speed is 1/45 to 1/250.
