Perfekta Perfekta Analogue camera
Perfect camera with original case in excellent condition, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of analog photography. Manufactured in East Germany starting in the 1950s, the Perkta is a medium format camera made of Bakelite, a durable and lightweight plastic material, which gives it a distinctive and vintage appearance.
This camera uses 120 film and produces images in the 6x6 cm format, appreciated for its sharp rendering and the characteristic depth of field of medium format. The lens is an 80mm achromat with an f/11 aperture, which ensures good image quality under favorable lighting conditions. The focus is fixed, while the diaphragm can be set to three main positions, designed to adapt to available natural light. The shutter speed is single, approximately 1/60s, with a bulb option for long exposures.
The waist level finder is bright and practical, designed for a comfortable framing at waist level, and features a foldable magnifying glass for a more precise view. All mechanisms are operational: the shutter fires correctly, the film transport is smooth, and the viewfinder is clear and scratch-free. The brown leather case, original and with a strap, shows minimal signs of age but maintains structural integrity and functionality.
A perfect object for those who wish to enrich their vintage camera collection or for those who want to experiment with analog photography using a historic and fascinating instrument. The Perfekta combines ease of use, retro design, and build quality, making it an iconic piece of post-war Eastern European photography.
