AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

AGFA Optima I, made in Germany, Alfred Gauthier Calmbach Prontor-lux shutter and with Agfa color Agnar 2.8/45 with 3 coated elements. One of the first produced cameras with fully automatic exposure control with a selenium exposure meter and thus without batteries. The solid construction, the smooth operation, and the sober Art Deco style make it a pleasure to use. No minimum price and everything works very well but has not been tested with film. The offer is for the camera only.
