Introduced in 1957 and discontinued production in 1962 this enigmatic camera, the Pony II utilizes Kodak's higher quality Anastar lens (4 elements in 3 groups, similar to a Tessar but with the rear element group reversed) in a rigid mount, but has only a single 1/30 of a second (M sync only) shutter speed. The 44mm f3.9 with EV (exposure values) of 9.5 to 15 lens lacks traditional f/stops, but instead is marked with EV’s (exposure values). The aperture diaphragm has only four blades. The top mounted film reminder dial of the Pony 135 models is replaced by a holder on the camera's back providing a place for Kodak film EV cards. The camera's redesigned top has a very different "late 1950s" look. The B-1 pocket flash holder uses two AA batteries, can use M5 or M25 lamps, and has a number of adjustments on the back for setting the correct lens opening. The Kodak Pony II originally sold for $26.75 USD without the flash attachment.
