CHINON Chinon CM-4s User Manual

4.3 (4)

It is a basic manual exposure camera similar to any needle match except you have to match the lights. The link to the Ultimate K-mount site only shows a CM-4 not the S model. The CM-4S has a self timer. The CM-4 does not have a self-timer. Thanks to Gene Poon for that information.
