Beirette VSN from Communist DDR

The Beirette VSN is a Point'n'Shoot camera from East Germany. It has only 1/125, 60, 30 and B speeds and apertures from 2.8 to 22. Lens is a Meritar 40mm. Very light, made of plastic and thin aluminum. I have two of them, one cost me 5 euros the other 10.

Needs an accurate estimate of the subject distance, the position of the shutter button nakes it difficult for steady shots. There are no parallax marks in the viewfinder.
