AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Up for auction: a classic and sturdy 35mm vintage SLR—the Exakta Varex VX—produced in Germany (GDR) by the historic Ihagee Dresden plants starting in the 1950s.
The lot is presented in good overall condition, perfectly functional, and is complete with its original leather case and the front lens cap.
Optics. The original Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f/2.8 T lens is structurally sound and free of mold. For full disclosure, there are light superficial wear marks visible only in backlight on the lens, a vintage detail that in no way compromises the shot or final image quality.
Mechanical. The lot has been tested and is functioning.
Aesthetics. Good overall condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The solid and hefty metal body maintains a good visual impact with chrome and glossy satin finishes, free of structural impact, showing normal light signs of wear and handling consistent with the object's age. There is a partial and light loss of black color inside the upper historic engraved inscriptions, which remain perfectly sharp and legible. The black leatherette covering is intact and firmly attached to the chassis.
Tracked international shipping, fully insured and professionally ultra-protective packaging to guarantee maximum safety during transport.
