Introduced in 1971, the Atoron Electro significantly advanced the format by incorporating a highly accurate electronic shutter and a CdS light meter for fully automatic exposure control. Featuring a sharp 18mm f\/2.8 Yashinon lens, this camera delivers exceptional detail on the tiny 8x11mm film frame. Its sleek, brushed-metal body and tactile \"pull-push\" film advance mechanism make it a standout example of Japanese precision, offering a sophisticated and discreet photographic experience for the serious analog collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,0,0\"\u003eAdvanced electronic shutter with fully automatic exposure (1\/10s to 1\/350s)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,1,0\"\u003eFast 18mm f\/2.8 Yashinon prime lens for superior sharpness in a tiny format\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,2,0\"\u003eIntegrated CdS light meter for precise \"point-and-shoot\" analog operation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,3,0\"\u003eSignature \"Pull-Push\" telescoping action for rapid film advance and shutter cocking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,4,0\"\u003eBuilt-in sliding Yellow filter for enhanced contrast in black and white photography\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,5,0\"\u003eLarge, bright-line viewfinder with parallax correction marks for accurate framing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,6,0\"\u003eUltra-compact all-metal construction that disappears into a pocket or palm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eIntroductory Paragraph\u003c\/b\u003e The Yashica Atoron Electro is the definitive choice for those who demand \"spy camera\" portability without sacrificing electronic precision. This specific unit (S\/N: 20701800) features the high-performance 18mm f\/2.8 optics, which provide a natural wide-angle perspective equivalent to approximately 35mm on a standard camera. The Atoron Electro is particularly favored for its ease of use; unlike earlier mechanical subminiatures, its \"Electro\" brain handles the exposure calculations automatically, signaled by a simple \"Slow\" warning light in the viewfinder. Because it utilizes the standard Minox-style 8x11mm film cartridge, it remains a functional and highly rewarding tool for the modern subminiature enthusiast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/b\u003e Good condition. The camera body (S\/N: 20701800) shows normal signs of light use and minor cosmetic surface wear consistent with its vintage age. The 18mm f\/2.8 Yashinon lens is optically clear, free from fungus, haze, or significant scratches. The \"pull-push\" telescoping mechanism is smooth and snaps firmly into place. The electronic shutter and CdS light meter have been tested and are operational. The battery compartment is clean, and the internal film chamber is free of debris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/b\u003e \"The Atoron Electro is a beautifully over-engineered little machine. What I love about this S\/N: 20701800 is the Yashinon glass—Yashica really didn't hold back on the quality here, and the images have a wonderful punchy contrast. It feels much more 'modern' to use than a manual Minox because you can trust the light meter to get the exposure right. The build quality is exceptional; it has that dense, premium 'click' that you only get from 1970s Japanese metalwork. It’s a rugged, honest, and incredibly stylish piece of history that still feels like a high-tech gadget today.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003eYashica Atoron Electro Miniature Camera (S\/N: 20701800)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003eIntegrated Yashinon 18mm f\/2.8 Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\"\u003eOriginal Yashica Carrying Chain\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,3,0\"\u003e[Optional: Original Leather Presentation Case if available]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003eCamera Type: Miniature Camera\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"\u003eFilm Format: Minox-type Subminiature (9.5mm \/ 8x11mm frame)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"\u003eLens: 18mm f\/2.8 Yashinon (Fixed Focus)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\"\u003eShutter: Electronic (1\/10s - 1\/350s)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\"\u003eExposure: Fully Automatic (Programmed AE)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,5,0\"\u003eCategory: 1.
