MINOX Type B Modified → Type A

#Ultra-Small Camera #Spy Camera

The Minox B, whose light meter was no longer functional due to selenium degradation, was modified into an A model, with the reasoning that a non-functional light meter would be cleaner if it wasn't there.
(The modification method involved combining two units: the left outer shell of a junk A model was transplanted onto the B model body.)
It has become more compact, functions without any particular issues, and comes with a bonus hand strap and two expired film rolls, which I think is great.

- The exterior is now mostly like an A model, but the interior is still from a B model, so the built-in filters are ND and green.
- Scratches were made during the modification process (image 8) but were repaired from the inside (image 9). Otherwise, the exterior is in good condition.

- The shutter seems to be in good condition at all speeds.
- The distance dial and parallax correction frame are OK.
- The viewfinder has some slight smudges, but they have almost no impact on visibility and it appears clear.
- I believe the taking lens is free of fungus, scratches, and haze.
