Ihagee Kine Exakta I (round viewfinder) (before war edition)

{"overview":"The Kine Exakta I is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera introduced by the Dresden maker Ihagee in the 1930s, and is generally recognised as one of the earliest 35mm SLR designs to reach the market. Because sample size is very small, the market_price at saleroom level is best read as a guide rather than a firm figure, and exceptional outfits can sell for considerably more than tired bodies.","buying_guide":"Inspect the cloth focal-plane shutter for pinholes, capping and accurate slow speeds, as curtains of this age frequently need replacement. Check the waist-level finder for the correct round magnifier (a key originality point for pre-war examples), and confirm the film transport, frame counter and rewind release all operate cleanly.
