Early german SLR's

VEB Pentacon Pentina, Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar 50mm f:2,8
Vebur B 1 - 1/500 centrallshutter, coupled  exposuremeter.

Worlds first camera with so called frame construction,
 all the components are fastened to a frame under the outer front shell.


With Carl Zeiss Tessar, 50mm f:2,8 objektif,
it does'nt get much sharper and contrast-rich than this!


Interchangeable optics with central shutter behind the lens.
35mm 50mm 85mm 135mm and longer lenses whëre available....

A beautiful construction, futuristic for its time, and great build quality!
The camera works, exposure meter works and picture examples will be shown.
