Description from the seller

Voigtländer Bessamatic – 35mm analog single-lens reflex camera with the Color-Skopar 50mm f/2.8 lens – Germany, 1960s

Voigtländer Bessamatic, an analog SLR camera produced in West Germany between the late 1950s and the early 1960s, is an example of the craftsmanship and German photographic engineering of the era.

The body features solid metal construction with chrome finishes and a textured black coating, bearing the characteristic design of vintage SLRs.

Equipped with the original Voigtländer Color-Skopar 50mm f/2.8 lens, central Synchro-Compur X shutter with speeds from 1 to 1/500 second and B exposure, built-in selenium light meter, and manual focusing system.

Technical specifications:
- Brand: Voigtländer
- Model: Bessamatic
- Production: West Germany, circa 1958–1962
- Format: 35mm film
- Lens: Color-Skopar 50mm f/2.8
- Shutter: Synchro-Compur X
- Serial number (camera body): 271040
- Dimensions: 14 × 10 × 8 cm (H × W × D)

An interesting specimen of historical analog photography, appreciated by collectors of German photographic equipment.

Condition: excellent general vintage cosmetic condition, with signs of age and use, minor abrasions and light oxidation on metal parts. The external covering is well preserved. Mechanical operation, shutter, and the exposure meter have been checked; only the viewfinder glass appears dirty.
