c_family.jpg (256692 bytes)The Minox C is the longest Minox subminiature camera; where a Minox AIIIs is 82mm including PC flash connector, the C is 122 mm long. It is about half an inch  longer than an Minox B.  The Minox C represented a major design overhaul incorporating many changes. Most significantly, a fully automatic shutter speed-governing CdS meter replaced the Selenium meter. The extra length of the C over the B  is to accommodate the new meter-and its batteries. As a consequence of the CdS meter, a third dial to set the ISO appeared at the top of the camera in place of the B's meter display, and the available shutter speeds in manual mode changed in both value (100th/50th/20th became 125th/60th/30th, etc.) and range (fixed speeds slower than 1/15th were no longer possible.) A warning light on the camera indicated slow exposures to recommend tripod or flash use. A film-advance/shutter-cock interlock was added allowing the camera to be opened and closed without advancing the film if a picture hadn't been taken (and a new exposure-counter counted down rather than up.) An improved lens no longer requiring the curved film plane replaced the Complan. The new meter used a smaller window as opposed to the Minox B's large one.

The film counter has a black area from 15 down to zero, a red dot for the load point of 36 exposure length films and a red line for the start position of 15 exposure length films. Film much is loaded at the correct point as the film advance mechanism is geared to make even spaces for the whole film length and makes assumptions about how much film has already been loaded onto the take up spool.

Some flat black "private eye" models were made (COMPLAN/white light, Minox lens/white light and MINOX lens/red LED). The finish is matt black, compared to the smooth shinny black B's but this finish more resistant to surface scratches and chipping.

Imperial measure versions are in feet and inches with ASA film speed, metric ones are in metres with DIN film speed.

The original COMPLAN lens was soon replaced by the new Minox lens and the electronics were improved to extend the maximum exposure time from 7 seconds to 10 seconds. At this time the a UV filter was added in front of the CDS cell and the raised rim around the frame counter (found on Rigas, A's and B's) was removed. Later the long exposure warning white light bulb was replaced by a battery saving red diode. The serial numbers of C's without the UV covering the meter was about #23002651 -2301593 (see 2301093), so the first 1600 where in this form. The cell window on the shell is larger than the later windows.

The UV filter referred to is not the lens mounted in the shell which covers the meter cell, but the one inside which when you slide the shell to the "load film" position would be visible.  These filters were made in various grades of grey and may have acted as the final adjustment for meter calibration (the assembler would install the proper shade of grey to calibrate the meter at the factory).  May have been nor not have been UV filters, in fact they are glass and breakable. The UV/non UV variant has a minimal effect on functionality and no visible differences can be seen in the various model; interesting to note though.

The general view is that the Complan lens Minox C is the best camera for black and white photography and that the Minox lens is better for colour photography due to more suitable coating on the optics. This opinion was also suggested by Walter Zapp.

Serial numbers run from 2300101 to 2473694; thus up to 173594 may have been manufactured. Minox Cs were made between 1969 and 1978 and are the second most numerous model exceeding the firm's most optimistic expectations. Used ones in excellent condition are fairly easy to find and are a great buy, since they aren't all that old and are functionally almost identical to the later (but very expensive) Minox LX. Just be sure to check them with good batteries.

The engravings on the slide cover include a "C" for the USA market.  On some black anodized cameras for the USA the engraved 'C' is highlighted in white.

There is also an 'FI' variation, for the Italian trading company FOWA Professional and is "Fowa, Italy".  Rumours are that FI engraving means "FIorenze", Florence, where it seemed that Minox arranged the assembly of some cameras due to the over demand at the  German factory. This has also been reported by German shops and also in the book "Spy Camera - The Minox Story" by Morris Moses who believed it stood for "Fabbricata In Italia".  Diego Massasso of  FOWA explained that FOWA was the importing agent for Minox Cameras in Italy since 1975 to 1996 ca. No cameras were assembled in Italy. The 'FI' was engraved on all Minox 35 cameras imported by FOWA, the exact position depending upon the model. On the EL, GL, GT, PL, PE it is engraved directly on the camera body near the objective (left side), on the ML, MB it is on the right side, under the battery tray. Last imported models GTE, GSE have the 'FI' marked on the inside of the front flap. The markings on the Minox C and some BL and B cameras was to prevent irregular importation.  Fowa was the main dealer for east Europe, specially for espionage equipment and that differentiates it from other EEC (the original 6 members of the EU) and European countries that imported Minox cameras (see FI - FOWA).

 FI engraved metric cameras have been seen with both complan lens and Minox lens (with red LED).

USA imported Minox C cameras are engraved with C below the Minox logo in the film chamber door. USA 'C' engraved cameras with red LED are uncommon. The packaging of all USA imported Minox C cameras is a black box with red velvet tray. In Europe grey, with blue velvet tray, was used for silver/matt aluminium cameras and black, with red velvet tray, for black 'private eye' cameras until the introduction of the Minox BL. The plastic box was replaced by a black vinyl covered metal box with blue velvet plastic tray for chrome/matt aluminium cameras and a red velvet plastic tray for black cameras.
