Ami (camera)

The Ami was also quite popular, although its availability was sometimes restricted due to production limits in the economy imposed by the government.

All three had bodies made from styropol, a high-impact polystyrene, which substantially reduced the weight compared to the Druh.

There was little in the way of custom settings to adjust; users could simply click the shutter and advance the film.

A pop art design of white dots around the lens (which resembled photocells) was meant to attract attention.

The camera has a B (bulb) option that allowed for keeping the exposure open indefinitely, for use in a dark environment or indoors.
