The Kine Exakta I is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera made by Ihagee in Dresden, introduced in the 1930s as one of the earliest 35mm SLRs. The pre-war square-viewfinder edition refers to the original housing design used before later round-magnifier revisions, and it was positioned as a precision system camera for serious photographers.

With only one tracked UK auction hammer result, pricing data is thin: a single example sold for £100 in January 2025, and that figure is the only firm reference point for what a pre-war square-finder Kine Exakta I sells for at saleroom level today in 2026. Because hammer prices reflect wholesale auction levels rather than dealer retail, condition, completeness with a period lens, and finder clarity can shift the value materially above or below this single data point.
