Picked up a nice bunch of Exakta stuff, yesterday. Several hours of driving to pick it up.
Some nuggets from that Exakta bonanza:
Kine Exakta with 2/5cm Xenon, 2,8/10,5cm Trioplan, 4/13,5cm Triotar, 1,5/7,5cm Biotar, 5,5/360mm Tele-Xenar, 3,5/28mm Ultra-Lithagon, 3,5/105 Xenar on Novoflex bellows, 2 Hanimex converters, Exakta Varex IIa + 2,8/50 Tessar, tilt&shift bellows from Kopil... lots of tripods, accessories, filters, flash bulbs, .... some projection lenses, like Leitz Hektor, P-Planar, .... it was a pleasure to digg through the boxes. Most was in leather cases or boxes. Even the Novoflex bellows came in a Novoflex leather case (never saw one before).
Not really a bargain, but the price was right. So I'm lucky.

Oh my !
So much chrome !

Biotar 1.5/75 slim version - alu right ?
The old-style Tele Xenar 5.5/36cm - the later one is one of my favorites
Meyer 2.8/10.5 ?
Schneider 2/5cm ?

Is that the magnifier on the old body ?

They sure don't make 'em like they used to.

It is a prisma finder on the Kine Exakta

Beautifull stuff! That lenses .. wow!

Several hours' drive and no 66? Laughing Gawd, what a haul, and the Novoflex
is topnotch, look at the beef in that one compared to the other.

Congrats!

Yes, both cameras seems to work ok. But the Kine has a worn mirror.

Yes! The Biotar has a nick in filterring, but performs really nice.
It was really a rare chance to get such a huge outfit from one person.

Great purchase-looks in great shape too.
Reminds me that I have an old copy of the Tele Xenar 5.5/36cm -that I need to use.


Congrats
