With a manual film advance and a size of 14.3 x 9.2 x 8.4 cm and a weight of 900 g, it is a solid camera for photographers looking for a reliable and robust camera. In this text, we will take a closer look at the specifications of the Bell & Howell Auto 35 Reflex and how it compares to other cameras of the same type.

The Bell & Howell Auto 35 Reflex features manual film advance, which ensures that the exposure is always correct. The camera uses the 35mm 35mm format and the image size of the negatives is 24mm x 36mm. A good film for it is the Kodak Gold 200*.

The focus of the camera is manual, which allows the photographer to focus the image as they wish. Shutter speeds on the 35mm SLR range from 1/500 sec to 1/8 sec, including Bulb mode, which keeps the shutter speed open as long as the shutter button remains pressed. The camera has a light meter to ensure that each image is optimally exposed. Supported film sensitivities range from ISO 25 to 800, which provides enough latitude for various lighting conditions.

The SLR does not have a built-in flash, but it does have a PC flash port and a flash sync speed of 1/60 sec. A tripod thread and cable release thread are provided to keep the camera stable when needed and minimize camera shake during shooting. A built-in self-timer is also provided.

The Bell & Howell Auto 35 Reflex does not require a power supply, making it ready for use in remote areas.
