[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 790690, member: 50197"] My C-4 was the follow on model to the C-3 "brick". It still didn't have a built in light meter. My dad gave me a small selenium cell meter (no battery needed) that would fit on the flash shoe on top of the camera. Neither of them were bad starter cameras for the day. Going to an SLR was a huge upgrade, however, even the East German made Praktica. I remember drooling over the Nikon Fs at the time. No way I had the money to afford one of those back then. When I finally was able to afford to buy a new camera, I went with Pentax. They were an excellent bang for the buck at the time. [/QUOTE]
