Exakta Varex IIb (Version 6 Exakta VX IIb in USA) is a 35mm film SLR camera manufactured by Ihagee East Germany and produced between 1963-1967. Exakta was an expensive camera used by professionals and serious amateurs. Beginning with the Exakta Varex, the lenses, eye-level pentaprism, and waist-level viewfinders are interchangeable within all versions. Ihagee never made lenses of its own brand for the Exakta cameras.
Lens: Steinheil-Auto-Culmigon 3.5/35 mm. Focal range: 35. Max aperture: 3.5. Year: 1967. Film speeds moved to the top of the slow speed dial.
