What it is

{"overview":"The Praktiflex is an early 35mm single-lens reflex camera produced by Kamera Werkstätten in Dresden. On that limited basis, today's value for a Praktiflex of this period sits in the low double-digit to lower three-figure range, with what it sells for being highly dependent on cosmetic condition of the red leather covering and shutter function.","buying_guide":"Inspect the cloth focal-plane shutter for pinholes, capping and tape repairs, as cloth from this era often deteriorates. Check the red leather covering for shrinkage, lifting and replacement panels, since originality of the covering drives the price premium for this variant.
