The family of Agfamatic pocket is characterized by a very good manufacture, they comprise all a tripod socket, which serves to screw the strap, an orange resilient pad - the 'sensor' and destined for minimize the moved, one of defects of 110 camera

The film is advanced Minox-style (Minox B and C) by pushing the end of the camera in and out - the moving body section also extends around the front to protect the lens & viewfinder.

The body is mainly black plastic, with a few metal components both internally and externally - the body end & cover section is in brushed aluminum, with a couple of extra aluminum trims on the main body.

The shutter and speed switch are on the top panel, and a slide-lock to hold the body closed when not in use.

Le 4000 est très proche du 2000 et du 3000. Son objectif est plus lumineux (Apotar 6,3/26mm). Les pictogrammes météo sont remplacés par des dessins représentant un paysage, deux personnages ou une personne. Comme sur le 3000, la petite fenêtre présentant ces petits dessins affiche aussi une échelle de distance (en caractères bleus), lisible en pieds ou mètres et qui n'a d'intérêt que lorsque un flash est utilisé.
Par défaut, cet appareil est destiné à utiliser des flashcubes.
