AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Kodak Retina 1 B.
The Kodak Retina 1 B is a famous high-quality 35mm camera from Kodak, built in 1957 by Kodak AG in Germany (Stuttgart).
The camera has a built-in light meter, a large bright viewfinder with frame lines.
It is the last type "viewfinder" camera that Kodak built.
The camera features the famous Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar optics 50mm, f/2.8 with Synchro-Compur shutter.

Do not confuse the camera with the simpler Kodak 1b and Kodak Retinette.
( The type difference lies in the capital letter B)
For a 70-year-old camera this one is still in good condition; it is also notable that this 70-year-old selenium meter still functions correctly!
The Kodak Retina 1B is relatively rarely offered and is a highly sought-after collector's item
