It has exposure advice; select aperture and lighting conditions ''dull, gray, clear'' or ''brilliant''. At the shown aperture "figures indicate required exposure" as it states on the lever.

The camera was designed to use A120 film. To benefit from this [[autographic]] feature, a stylus with an Art Deco look was included (just above the window). Very often the stylus is lost on cameras you find at photographica fairs. On the back of the camera, you find the obvious red windows used for frame counting. On this camera, a little advice was imprinted in the black leather: ''use film No A120''. Nowadays, all you can use is simple 120 film.

=== Viewfinder ===
The finder is a prism that, when looked at from a distance, gives you an idea of framing. The prism can be put in a horizontal or vertical position, so composing can be done by looking into it from above or from the side of the camera. The prism field is shows swiss cross for ''portrait'' or ''landscape'' pictures.
