What it is
{"overview":"The Bentzin Primar Reflex is a German-made medium-format single-lens reflex camera dating from the pre-war era of plate and roll-film SLR design. Because this is a wholesale saleroom figure rather than a dealer asking price, retail-ready examples in 2026 typically command more, and condition of the bellows, shutter and ground glass has an outsized effect on what the camera is worth.","buying_guide":"Pre-war German reflex cameras of this type are prone to light-leaking bellows, sluggish or seized cloth focal-plane shutters, and tarnished mirrors, so inspect each of these carefully before buying.
