Rollei 35S
Compact 35mm camera.
Although this was one of my all time favourite cameras I do not have a photo of it, so I have linked to an excellent photo of one taken by Thomas
.
It shows how small this compact 35mm camera is, and the collapsible 40mm f2.8 lens make it even easier to slide into your pocket.
A good introduction to this range can be found in Wikipedia.
Main features:
5 element Sonar lens
uncoupled CDS light meter (although needs mercury battery)
shutter speed 1/2 to 1/500 sec.

Other models:
Before I found the 35S I had a 35T which was basically the same only with a 4 element Tessar lens. This was the same as the original Rollei 35 which was renamed when the 35S was released.I still have my father's Rollei 35B. In fact I have a film in it at the moment (Dec 2010).
