These were the cheapest SLRs you could buy, but built like a tank, and weighed about the same. Taking the lens off mine was a bit like lifting the engine out of a car. Took good pics, but difficult to lift up - never mind hold and point - the idea of taking it on holiday was a bit silly.

I was amazed to find these were very well thought of, and modern versions are still being produced!
