What it is

{"overview":"The Kowa Kallo 140 is a 35mm fixed-lens rangefinder camera made by Japanese maker Kowa Optical. With just one data point the Kallo 140 is effectively a niche collector item, and what it sells for today depends heavily on cosmetic condition, working shutter, and the presence of the original case.","buying_guide":"On any fixed-lens Kowa rangefinder of this period, inspect the leaf shutter for sticky or sluggish slow speeds, check the rangefinder patch for contrast and vertical alignment, and look for haze or fungus inside the fixed lens.
