I had that camera from 1956. Loved it. And I took better pictures with it than I do now with digicams. I learned to estimate distances and exposures and I was almost always right.
These are nice cameras. Theres a lot of combinations between bodies, lenses and shutters. Mine is branded Agfa, has the Vario shutter with 3 speeds only (25,50 and 200), but the 45mm 2.8 Apotar lens. The lens markings are on feet too, I believe it was a UK model, while German models had the scale on meters. Anyway I'm currently shooting a roll through it. Thanks for the video!
I take good pictures with my Agfa Silette. The camera is a bit boring, but well made and the 3.5 Apotar lens is decent, or maybe above decent. I love your channel, keep it up! 😊👍🏻

Thanks. I hadn't read anything about the Vario as an option. Interesting that the nice lens is in a simple shutter.
I heard you can do double exposures with this, is this true.
