The Electro 35 series was made from 1966 to 1977, the GSN is the last model, but the only real differences from the earlier versions are a hot shoe and different film speed settings.
It's an automatic, aperture priority rangefinder camera with no manual overide. The f1.7 lens has quite a good reputation. I've loaded it with Kodak ColorPlus ISO200 film from Poundland.

photos from week 116 - Kodak Tele Disc
Three consecutive exposures as they appear on the scanned disc.

This is a scan of the whole disc, the age related deterioration is particularly evident in the dark skies to the left of the scan. There is no exposure control on this camera, so no way to try to compensate for the loss of sensitivity that aging film suffers from.

This is one of the 15 photos on the disc. The quality is worse than I had hoped based on previous old discs, the negatives are very thin, and there are a lot of blotches.
I took a series of photos of roof-top details in Barcelona, this is a chimney on the Guell Palace.

Week 116 - Kodak Tele Disc
This is another disc camera, like most, it has a fixed aperture and shutter speed, but this one also has a telephoto lens setting, engaged by popping out the electronic flash unit.
Disc film is no longer made, I've loaded this one with an expired Konica disc which came with another camera that I bought on Ebay.
