Balda Baldessa I lens mount_Leica M Balances daylight film under tungsten

Balances daylight film under tungsten lighting

This one's not great for prints- there's no transparent section for light to get through

Focusing action is smooth though slightly stiffer than usual- a boon for macro work

Extra bonus: this thing is also tiny- only about 13cm long- and packs easily
