Canon Dial 35 Half-Frame Camera - AS-IS/Display/Repairs
Canon Dial 35 - Half Frame
Vintage 1960s - Beautiful design.
Unfortunately, the camera does not work. The winder does not wind which is the key to the whole camera for it to operate and take pictures.
Due to its nice condition, it can be a great display piece or if you can find someone to fix the winder then it will function as the camera can be used manually.
The battery compartment is clean if you can find 1.3 V H-P mercury battery for the light meter but it is not necessary.
