Exakta 66 with waist-level viewfinder image by Michael Wagenhäuser (Image rights) |
See also the earlier East German horizontal Exakta 6×6 and vertical Exakta 66.
The Exakta 66 is an SLR camera taking 6×6cm pictures on 120 or 220 film. It employs the same lens mount introduced on the Praktisix, one of the last models to do so. Its black body and bold logo updated a design still largely based on the Pentacon Six.. It was announced by the West German Ihagee Kamerawerk (Ihagee West) at the 1984 Photokina, and sold from 1986.[1]
The original version was followed by a model II; then in 1996 a model III offering mirror lockup. These were marked as "Mod 2" or "Mod 3" in the center of the advance lever.
