Canon Demi EE28 35mm Half Frame Vintage Film Camera

The Canon Demi is a half frame camera, ''Demi'' being the French word for "half". It uses ordinary cartridge style 35mm film, but takes two 24 x 18mm exposures in the place of a normal 24 x 36mm film frame. This means a 36 exposure roll will actually hold 72 separate half frame photos. This could be quite a saving per exposure for a simple snapshot camera: economics was the reason for the half frame cameras of the sixties.
