Manufactured in Germany circa 1970. Aluminum finish. Black eveready case with measuring chain. Calibrated in feet. (Serial number 2342161) The Minox C lens has a fixed aperture of f/3.5 and can focus from 20 cm to infinity. Between 1969 and 1978 a total of 173,594 units were made. The camera has an electronic shutter rather than a mechanical one. For both these features, the camera requires a battery, which is installed in a compartment to the right of the light sensor. As a result, the camera is significantly larger than the Minox B. When closed, the camera measures 120 x 27 x 15 mm.
