Kodak Retina Automatic I – Strømlinjeformet vesttysk presisjon

The Kodak Retina Automatic I (Type 038), manufactured between 1960 and 1962 by Kodak AG in Stuttgart, Germany, is an elegant entry point into the world of high-end European photography. Designed to offer the legendary Retina build quality with simplified operation, the Automatic I was one of the first cameras to feature a fully automatic programmed exposure mode. By integrating a reliable selenium light meter with a precision Compur shutter, Kodak created a "point-and-shoot" for the discerning 1960s enthusiast—a camera that balances mechanical sophistication with effortless usability.

Key Benefits
Programmed Automation: Features a pioneering automatic exposure system that sets both aperture and shutter speed, allowing the photographer to focus entirely on framing the moment.
Schneider-Kreuznach Glass: Equipped with the 45 mm f/2.8 Reomar lens, a high-quality triplet design that delivers the classic contrast and color rendering Schneider is famous for.
Signature Retina Ergonomics: Boasts the high-density feel and satin-chrome finish that made the Stuttgart-made Retinas a world standard for mechanical excellence.

Features
Camera Type: 35mm Viewfinder Camera
Lens: Schneider-Kreuznach Reomar 45 mm f/2.8
Shutter: Compur programmed leaf shutter
Exposure Mode: Fully automatic "Program" mode with manual override for flash photography.
Light Meter: Built-in Selenium cell (coupled to the exposure system, no batteries required)
Viewfinder: Large, bright-line optical finder with "Red/Green" exposure warning signal.
Film Advance: Signature underside-mounted rapid winding lever—an ergonomic hallmark of the Retina series.
Body: All-metal chassis with premium black leatherette and satin chrome accents.

Condition
Cosmetic (Rated 4/5): The camera is in excellent vintage condition. The chrome top plate is bright and clean. The black textured covering is fully intact and secure, showing very little wear for its age.
Optical: The Reomar lens is clear with no visible fungus. The viewfinder provides a bright and clear window for easy composition.
Mechanical: The shutter fires correctly. The film advance lever operates with a smooth, precise mechanical action. The "Magic Eye" selenium meter reacts to light, though its calibration for modern film has not been verified.

Note: This item is sold as a professional collectible. While mechanically operational, it has not been film-tested for light-tightness or automation accuracy.

What’s Included
Kodak Retina Automatic I Camera Body
Original Brown Leather Ever-Ready Case (marked "Kodak," in good vintage condition)

Why This Product?
The Retina Automatic I is the perfect choice for someone who appreciates the history and bygging of the Kodak Retina-linjen but foretrekker en mer spontan avfotografieringsopplevelse. It fjerner eksponeringens matematikk samtidig som den beholder den tunge, kvalitetsfølelsen av et tysk presisjonsinstrument. Enten som et stilig tillegg til en midtårsutstilling eller som et morsomt, mekanisk verktøy for analoge øyeblikksbilder, er denne Retina-et vakkert bevart eksempel fra perioden da Kodak Stuttgart ledet verden i kamerainnovasjon.
