The Canon Dial 35 was an unconventional half-frame 35mm camera with clockwork automatic film advance. It was made in Japan by Canon from November 1963. The Dial 35 was also sold as the Bell & Howell Dial 35.
The body had an unusual "portrait" format rectangular shape, with a short, wide-diameter lens barrel containing the CdS meter photocells window around the 28mm lens. Rotating the lens barrel set the speed of the Seikosha shutter; the aperture was set automatically. A button below the viewfinder could be pulled out to give manual aperture control, for manual exposure settings or flash. Film speed was set on a scale around the meter window.
Focus was set on a lever around the top of the lens barrel, with a display inside the viewfinder.
There was a cylindrical handle at the bottom, which also wound the clockwork mechanism. On the (users) left is an accessory shoe. The film ran vertically, from the cassette at the top to the take-up spool at the bottom, giving a landscape-format 24×18mm frame when the camera is upright.

Shutter: Seikosha 1/30–1/250s, with Flash sync

The Vivitar T201 is an all-plastic point and shoot 35mm film camera with an f/9 aperture and 28mm focus free lens and with a built in flash which i able to be turned on and off. The camera was originally marketed for use by families and children and has since begun to be used occasionally in "toy camera" and lomography circles, but as yet is largely overlooked, unlike the Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim which has found a cult following. The camera gives photos a distinctive lo-fi feel, the effects of which can be emphasised by cross-processing slide film. The camera features a red eye reduction feature.
As the camera has a built in flash it does require a battery to allow the flash function to work. The flash can be turned on or off by selecting a simple plastic switch to the front of the camera. The camera is advanced manually and the shutter is fired by pressing a shutter release button located on the top of the camera. The camera takes 35mm film which is loaded to the rear of the camera.

One of the many confusing ranges of compact cameras from Nikon is the EF or Nice•Touch series. These point and shoot cameras had fixed focus wide angle lenses.
An early SLR offering from Chinon, circa 1966. Uses M42 thread-mount lenses. Vertical-traveling focal plane shutter to 1/1000 sec.
Sold as the Prinzflex Super TTL by Dixons and as Revueflex 1000S TTL by Foto-Quelle.
The camera is made of plastic and features a Panoramic switch that puts a mask over the film plane for a wide effect. By switching the camera on, a square hood pops forward, pushing this back shuts the power off again and closes the lens with a protective door.

The Pen series is a family of half-frame cameras made by Olympus from 1959 to the beginning of the 1980s. Aside from the Pen F series of half-frame SLRs, they are fixed-lens viewfinder cameras.
The original Pen was introduced in 1959. It was designed by Maitani Yoshihisa, and was the first half-frame camera produced in Japan. It was one of the smallest cameras to use 35mm film in regular 135 cassettes. It was thought to be as portable as a pen; thus the name. The idea was to be much copied by other Japanese makers.
A series of derivatives followed, some easier to use with the introduction of exposure automation, e.g. the Pen EE; others with a wider aperture lens and a manual meter, such as the Pen D.
In 1966 the arrival of the Rollei 35, a camera almost as compact but making normal 24×36 exposures, would announce the beginning of the end for the half-frame concept. However, Olympus went on producing the simpler models of the Pen family until at least 1983. 17 million Pen half-frame cameras were sold.
In the descriptions below, please note that the focal lengths indicated do not give the same angle of view as for full-frame cameras: 30mm on the Pen is roughly equivalent to 45mm on a full-frame, and 28mm to a 40mm.
The original Pen is a very compact half-frame camera, with just a viewfinder, no meter and fully manual settings. It has a 28mm f/3.5 Zuiko lens. Its shutter settings are 25, 50, 100, 200, B; its aperture range from 3.5 to 22. It has a PC Sync terminal at the lower-left of the lens. The back is removed completely for film loading and unloading.
The Pen S is almost the same camera, with the following shutter settings: 8, 15, 30, 60, 125, 250, B. It existed in two versions, with a 30mm f/2.8 lens or an 28mm f/3.5 lens.
The Pen EE was introduced in 1961 and was the amateur model, with fully automatic exposure and fixed focusing. It is a true point and shoot camera, and has a 28mm f/3.5 lens. The Pen EE family is easily recognized by the selenium meter window around the lens.
The Pen EE.S, launched in 1962, is the same model with a 30mm f/2.8 and a focusing ring, made necessary by the wider aperture.
In 1966 the two cameras were slightly modified and became the Pen EE (EL) and Pen EE.S (EL) with a modification of the take-up spool to make film loading easier. EL stands for Easy Loading. You can only recognize them by a small label marked EL stuck on the front, or you can open them and look at the take-up spool.
Features like fixed focus, a shutter speed of 1/60 sec., and an automatic exposure adjustment reveals, that easines of use was undoubtedly one of the main goal in the planning work of the Olympus Pen cameras. In fact, Olympus introduced eight models in the Olympus Pen EE series. Common feature was, that they all was half format cameras.
The EES is the Pen EE with a focusing lens and even EES exists in slightly different variations. Lens is Olympus D. Zuiko 1:2,8 / 3cm with three focus-indents for near, far, and intermediate distances. Shutter has two speeds 1/40sec and 1/200sec. F-stop is automatically selected by the selenium meter at 1/200 shutter speed but can be set manually with the shutter speed at 1/40.

Chaika (Russian: Чайка) was a series of Soviet 35mm half-frame cameras produced by BELOMO from 1965 to 1974. The name came from call sign of the first woman in space - Valentina Tereshkova. Over 2 million Chaika cameras were produced. All models of the Chaika cameras have metal case.

Chaika II is a half-frame 35mm film viewfinder camera made by MMZ, after 1971 made by Belomo and produced between 1967-72 with quantity of 1.250.000 units. Chaika (Чайка) means Seagull.
Chaika was the call sign of the first Russian female cosmonaut, Valentina Vladimirovna Tereshkova. She became extremely famous for her achievements and is still considered a hero in Russia. It's very likely that this line of cameras were at least partly named in honor of her. Her famous flight took place 1963 and the first Chaika camera was sold in 1965.
The difference between Chaika-I and Chaika-II is added a removable screw mount lens which could be used as the lens for an enlarger that was apparently never made available. The threads are the same as those for a Leica lens, but the focusing distance is different, so the lenses are not compatible.
There are 6 types and 9 sub-types of the Chaika-II

The Chaika-II (Seagull in Russian) is a great half frame scale focusing camera. It is simple, compact, well made and allows you to shoot close to 80 pictures on a standard 36 frame roll of 35 mm film. It was dame in the 1960's by the BELOMO factory in Belarus.

This is a scale camera, the focusing is done by the symbols and the distance scale on the lens. The focusing is easy and does not need to be very accurate to obtain good quality pictures. The camera was marketed as a "pocket" model, it is only 41/4"x3"x2".
