The best of the Paxette 28 series, the LK model includes match-needle exposure. Oddly, the film speed must be set manually using a selector on the lens mount, a feature I've never seen before on a 126 camera. The available range is a very wide 12 to 800 ASA. Perhaps the entire lens mount was taken from an existing 35 mm model. The lens ring is threaded for 28 mm filters, and the lens is identical to that used in the Instamatic 500.
