Dubbed the “Speedliner,” The Model 95A features a homegrown 130mm f/8.8 lens mated to a rotary shutter capable of speeds ranging from 1/12 to 1/100 and Bulb. In order to set exposure, the metal gear on the corner of the lens board can be rotated to select one of eight numbered exposure presets (#8 being the fastest shutter speed with the widest aperture and #1 being the slowest with the narrowest) as indicated in the window located directly above the lens. To engage Bulb mode, flick the switch located underneath the lens from “I” to “B” then either hold the shutter button (located on the user’s right-hand side of the lens board) down or screw a cable release into the socket directly above it. For composition, users have two choices: flip up the optical viewfinder located on the body or pull the wire frame finder out from behind
the lens board. For low light photography, the 95A is compatible with flash bulbs (through the terminal located below the lens) and electronic flash units (via the sync socket found on the top of the lens board), both of which can be mounted next to the viewfinder.
