Ihagee Kine Exakta II (1949)

The Ihagee Kine Exakta II is a 35mm single-lens reflex camera produced in Dresden by Ihagee, introduced in 1949 as a post-war update to the pre-war Kine Exakta line. It uses a waist-level finder and was positioned as a system SLR for advanced amateurs and professionals when new.

At UK auction in recent years, hammer prices for the Kine Exakta II have sat in a narrow £25–£62 range, with both recorded results landing inside that band — so as of today the market value is modest at saleroom level. Condition drives almost everything: working shutters, clean finders and intact body covering tend to lift what a buyer is willing to pay, while cosmetically tired examples sell for the lower end of that range.
