Thanks Mike brilliant presentation of a really iconic little camera. I have a Minox 35 GT hardly the same as the Minox B, but still small and superb build quality, it produces very sharp images indeed.
Thanks for the tutorial Mike! Do you know of anyone who will process the film other than Blue Moon? They are a too expensive to make using the camera reasonable.
Unfortunately it seems most are extremely expensive if you order prints. A dollar a exposure is a lot. Some people will send it for development and scan for use on a computer. Some rig up a negative gate for there scanner and then develop and scan them themselves. Some people go the extreme route and purchase the Minox enlarger and process and print it themselves. Getting quality prints from such small negatives can be quite a chore. Scratches on user slit film can be a really big problem. Dust is also a nightmare. Getting good images out of a scan of the negative is a whole lot easier with digital retouching.
I have a Minox B that belonged to my father. It is one of the rare black ones. I can't figure out how to remove the flash. If anyone can help or advise where to go for help, I'd appreciate it.

I'd like to get the 110 film camera Minox made.
Great video Mike, thanks.

Excellent video very informative

I'd love to watch a video about spies! Number stations especially.
Agreed! Learning about the spies would be great!
