Exakta collecting is growing all over the world.


Prism for the Exakta 66
and some other rare accessories





I wrote in the past that I am a lucky collector. I was looking at the updated list of MW Cameras (Mahendra Modi and David Woodford, you can find their address at my dealers page when I saw a list of interesting items. I bought four of them (you can see them hereafter, I did not clean them because tomorrow, early in the morning, I am leaving for a short holiday).



The most rare item is a Sperling prism for the post-war Exakta 66. You must mount it over the wlf wings (to fix it there is a spring operated locking lever )

This was the description of the second accessory Ihagee leather focussing hood with built-in magnifier for VP. Clip-on type to go over waist level finder. Narrow eyepiece for single eye use

You can see it again near the camera when it is "folded".

And here you can find the third item: "Ihagee leather focussing hood with built-in magnifier for VP Exakta + Ihagee sleeve case. Fits over waist level finder. Short size" (I have many, but no one with short sleeve case - No magnifier inside)

And here a very interesting idea. If you did not find the ground glass sliding back (with folding hood), you can make your back in few minutes, cutting a rectangle in the plate and inserting a ground glass).
