Ihagee Exakta Twin TL 42
The Ihagee Exakta Twin TL 42 is a 35mm SLR camera produced under the Exakta name. It was sold as a consumer-level body using the M42 screw lens mount, as indicated by the "42" in its model designation.
Evidence of what an Exakta Twin TL 42 is worth at saleroom level is thin: a single recent UK auction hammer result of £138 (September 2025) is the only confirmed data point, so today's price guidance for this model rests on that one sale rather than an established range or median. As with any Exakta-branded body of this era, condition and the presence of a working lens materially affect what an example sells for.
