Ihagee Kine Exakta I (after war edition)

The Kine Exakta I is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera made by Ihagee in Dresden, a post-war continuation of the pre-war Kine Exakta line that was among the earliest 35mm SLR designs. This after-war edition retained the waist-level finder and left-handed shutter release layout that characterised the series.

UK auction hammer results for the Kine Exakta I (after war edition) are thin, with recorded sales spanning roughly £92 to £330 at saleroom level — figures that reflect wholesale hammer prices rather than retail asking prices. A 2024 result of £325 suggests that in today's market a clean, working example can sell for around that figure, though with only a couple of data points the price any individual camera is worth remains highly condition-dependent.
