Description from the seller
This analog SLR camera Ihagee Exa II B is a fascinating piece of German photography history, produced in Dresden in the early sixties. This model stands out for its solid mechanical build and timeless vintage design, characterized by the classic two-tone finish that pairs chrome metal with black faux leather covering. On the front, the model name engraving clearly stands out. The camera features the characteristic fixed prism viewfinder and a focal-plane shutter with shutter speeds selectable via the top ring. The Exakta bayonet mount attached to the body allows the use of a very wide range of high-quality historical lenses from the era. The film advance lever and the shutter release button are positioned on the left side, a distinctive ergonomic choice of this series. The item is in good overall cosmetic condition, with normal light signs of wear on the metal surfaces that enhance its historical charm. The shutter speed ring and the visible mechanisms appear intact and clean. This is an excellent collectible piece for lovers of vintage analog photography or a stylish display object.
