    Description

    This wonderfully built piece of German optics and engineering has held its reputation for photographic excellence over half a century.
    While I cannot be certain, I believe it is designed for the Reflex Korelle.
    Optics are relatively clean for its age. Free of fungus, but the rear element has several mars that don't wipe away with lens cloth and fluid, so I assume they are scratches.
    Truly a rare item, very solidly built. I've not seen one with the aperture knob on the side like this one has.
