Minox B Used Accessories: Original packaging, case, strap Condition: B Shutter actuations: -- Warranty until: -- Minox B used Your legendary spy classic for discreet Engadine adventures and retro fun The Minox B is the ultimate cult classic among subminiature cameras – as small as a lighter (approx. 97 x 27 x 15 mm, only 130 g), it fits perfectly in any trouser pocket and was the tool of choice for spies, journalists and street photographers worldwide for decades. Produced from 1958 to 1972, with its legendary Complan 15 mm f/3.5 lens (equivalent to approx. 50 mm 35mm) and 8x11 mm negatives on special 9.2 mm film, it delivers incredible depth of detail for such tiny images – perfect for spontaneous snapshots in St. Moritz, hidden portraits in Sils or simply as a cool retro novelty. The mechanical shutter (1/2 to 1/1000 sec. + B/T), the parallax-corrected viewfinder, and the integrated filters (green + ND) make it a pure mechanical marvel – no batteries required! The coupled selenium light meter is a nice extra, but in this particular example (as with almost all vintage Minox B cameras), it's inaccurate due to its age – typical for degraded selenium cells after 60+ years. We therefore recommend using an external light meter, the Sunny 16 rule, or simply shooting from the hip – that's part of its charm! Fully functional in all mechanical parts (shutter, film advance, focus), condition B (normal signs of wear, fully ready to use) with original box, case, and strap – plus our 30-day Rutz used camera guarantee against defects that impair functionality. At Optik Foto Rutz, we test every analog camera with test film to ensure you experience true analog magic! Technical Highlights: Format: 8x11 mm subminiature (50 exposures per cassette, special 9.2 mm film – still available!)

Tiny masterpieces: 8x11 mm negatives with enormous sharpness – let us enlarge or scan them for impressive prints. Fully mechanical: No batteries required, virtually indestructible – only the selenium meter ages (as with almost all vintage models), so: use a Sunny 16 or app and have fun! Retro charm: Built-in film advance when opening/closing, metering chain for close-up shots (20–60 cm) – pure analog thrill. Used highlight: Condition B = normal wear (minor signs of use), mechanics in top condition, we tested with test film – works perfectly (except for the well-known meter issue).
