Exa Ib

134996066_81a9a94975_m.jpg

The Exa Ib is a cheaper version of the Exakta, produced by Ihagee in East-Germany. While most of the Exa's share their lens mount with the Exakta's, The Ib has a 42mm screw mount. This enables you to use a wide variety of m42 lenses. It was delivered with a 50/2.8 Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar.

The exa has a remarkable shutter: There are no curtains, but two rotating cylinders, one of which is fixed to the mirror. When you press the shutter button, the mirror goes up, thus opening the shutter. After the time set the second cylinder rotates to close it again. When you cock the shutter, both cylinders are placed in the original position.

Another interesting feature of the exa is that by half depressing the shutter button, the diaphragm closes. So each time you fire, you get a depth of field preview.
