The Minox EC has a 15mm Minox lens, as found on the C and LX. It is fixed focused at 6’ 6” (2 metres), but it has a Waterhouse stop at f5.6. It’s a really excellent performer and I can pull my EC out of my pocket and shoot faster than I can on my iPhone. Film is more fun too!
I completely agree. On film, this lens is great. Using the 24mm recently, too, and having used most of the others on digital, I suspect that theme will hold up as I review all of these lenses in the next couple of years. But, yes, on film, strongly recommend this. On digital, hard pass.
I know little of the camera as it did not attract my attention during the film era, and I have not previously seen such a detailed and useful review for the lens. Thanks for posting a very interesting and informative video!
The Pentax 110 was great, but ultimately after lots of issues related to age and wear, I now own a Minolta 110 mk2. I also tried the Canon 110 ED 2O, but it had consistent film flatness issues when used with lomography stock. My 8yo daughter loves the Minolta😁 I have maybe 6 more rolls frozen from a clearance sale, and then I think I'm done with 110. Really interesting review David!
Thank you! I just respooled 12 rolls of 110 this morning before work because it's almost impossible to find 110 film right now (Foma 400, Acros II, Arista 100, and Ulrafine Finesse 400). Respooling 110 is a bit of a pain, but WAY more affordable than buying fresh each time.
Good question and I do. www.rjcamera.com/ocart/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=50 That's the one I purchased and then stuck onto an M43 to Sony E adapter.
Thanks for this video. I would love to hear what you think of the 70mm lens. It’s one of my favourite lenses on my GX85.
Thank you! The 70mm is my favorite Pentax 110 lens, without a doubt. The 50mm is also very good, too.

Thank you! Minox cameras are ones I haven't ever really delved into.
I really loved the look of the images on black and white 110 film.

do you have a link to the aperture adapter for m43? I have a few of these 110 bodies and lenses
