What it is
{"overview":"The Ihagee Exakta A is a 127 roll-film single-lens reflex made in Dresden, part of the original Exakta series introduced in the 1930s. At saleroom level in 2026 a clean, working chrome example would be expected to sell for a price in that region, with cosmetic condition and shutter function the main swing factors.","buying_guide":"Pre-war Ihagee shutters commonly suffer from sluggish slow speeds, capping at higher speeds and tired curtain ribbons, so test the full speed range and inspect the cloth for pinholes.
