Dresden Museum's Unique Jewels

... Exakta collecting is growing all over the world!

Exas

The Exa Black Flange
Between first Exas, usually sold in USA, you can find this rare camera. There is a nice story between Bruce Pick, Klaus and me.

Variants

Kine Exacta 1937
This camera is not the later "c" version, it is the 1937 Kine!

Exakta Varex IIc
Surely after the Exakta Varex IIb! (As you can see there is not the lock for the waist level finder)

Exakta 100
Another front label for the Exa Ia

Elbaflex 175
I need information, but I think this late version has different dial speed.

Elbaflex 500
If you look at the Klaus'article on Elbinas, you can find the reasons of this change. Tha camera is an Exakta VX 500.

Exakta VX 500
It looks usual, but "VX 5002 is not on the label, but it is engraved on the front plate.

Anniversary Cameras

Exakta Varex 10000
On 1950, the 10.000th Varex made!

Exakta Varex IIa 250000
At the end of fifties, a Varex version 3, the 250000th made!

Thanks

Now, at the end of this list, I must thank Klaus Rademaker. Everytime I need information, he is ready to give me the answers I am looking for. I asked him about the Dresden Museum, he sent me the rare photos that you can reach by every link. I thanks the Exakta Circle too because many members often help me in making these pages. If you wish to know Klaus, here after you can read his (short, but he told me he was not used to write about himself) biography.

So Klaus replied when I asked him his short biography:
