Description:
The Petri Racer is a Japanese fixed-lens 35mm rangefinder introduced in 1966. It features a built-in match-needle coupled CdS lightmeter but no automatic exposure program. It could be equipped with a Petri 2.8/45 or 1.8/45 lens. The shutter is a ten-speed Petri.

In addition to the fixed lens, an auxiliary lens kit was available, transforming the standard 45 mm into short teal and wide lenses.
