The Dynamatic II is an interesting departure from the earlier Vito cameras. It's a little larger than the Vito C but a lot heavier. Like the Vito C it has the front-mounted shutter and rear-mounted advance. It has a rangefinder and a meter needle next to a shutter inside the viewfinder in "manuell" [sic] mode. It also has an automatic mode, though I haven't figured out exactly what that means.

My click for larger ad Dynamatic II has the Color-Skopar lens (there was a Lanthar version) and the deluxe finish—pretty chrome trim on the front, whereas the basic model simply had black leatherette.
