The Ansco Super Regent is a re-badged version of the Agfa Super Solinette. A 35mm folding camera, it has a very nice coupled superimposed rangefinder combined with the viewfinder and an Agfa Solinar f/3.5 50mm lens. The Solinar is a 4 element, 3 group design similar to the Zeiss Tessar. The frame counter is manually reset, and, surprisingly, the camera uses a round knob for the film advance, although the Agfa Karat, a predecessor, had one since the late 1930's. Build quality is excellent.
