Eine hochkarätige Kamera zu erschwinglichen Preisen? - Agfa Karat 1937

#diamantakis #studioanalog #agfakarat When Agfa launched this camera, the brand name Karat was supposed to give it the nymbus of a valuable camera. At 49 Reichsmark, it went over the counter at the time and proved to be quite affordable. It also gave the 135 film format a further impetus to spread further on the market. As a handy spring camera design, with an exposure time of 1/300 second and an aperture from 3.5 f, it was a joy for all amateur photographers. The necessary film cartridges from Agfa, were still to be filled by the photographer himself with film by the meter. This did not change until the introduction of Kodak's film cartridge, which is still known today. 00:00 Introduction 00:36 135 film by the meter 02:10 A high carat camera at affordable prices? 05:50 The tropical version? 06:29 The value is determined by customs! 07:33 Closing words The "Diamantakis" collection includes about 4,000 exhibits from the fields of photography and cinematography, including many exhibits of the Eumig company. Now it is looking for publicly accessible premises for a museum to document in detail the history of photo and film development. The greatest possible flexibility has been ensured in the choice of location. If you are interested to house the collection closed without snatching "fillet pieces" please contact: [email protected].
