JP's Modell P56L

One of my favourite of all the cameras, not because of the functions, but because of how it looks. Gold rim around lens, black body with some parts dark green.

Usually known as the Hamaphot P56, this camera was manufactured by Apparatebau und Kamerafabrik. Hamaphot was the distributor for these cameras. It is said that these were copies of the Pouva Start cameras.
