Retinette 1A (type 042) by Kodak (c1961 – 1963)
Made in Germany by Kodak A.G.. The camera has a 45mm f2.8 Schneider Kreuznach Reomar lens and a Pronto shutter. It focuses by estimation and has a top shutter speed of 1/300 sec. Photographers are always searching for the perfect lens. The lens that has the right “sharpness.” It’s a futile search, one that’s not worth the effort.
Every camera is a miraculous thing. A connection to your soul. A device that allows you to slice a part of your perception and share it with others.
