Variations with rounded and square top are reported. Some versions have Trioplan 73/3.5 lens in a Prontor II shutter (B, T, 1-175s). A remarkable feature of this Prontor II shutter is the fact that the lower speeds are on the right and the faster ones on the left, when seen from the front.

Pre-war German TLR made by Kamerawerk C. Richter in Tharandt, Germany from 1933 onwards. After the war this company was succeeded by Lipca or the Lippische Camerafabrik Richter & Fischer GmbH in Barntrup, West Germany. Later Reflectas were produced by Welta in East-Germany.


The Reflecta has a Brillantar 73 F/4.3 taking lens, while the viewing lens is a Brillantar 75 F/4.5. The shutter has B, T and 1/25–1/100s speeds. Focusing is done by a lever on the lower left part of the taking lens. Film transport does not cock the shutter, this is done separately by a small, red-eyed lever.


Variations

Variations with rounded and square top are reported. Some versions have Trioplan 73/3.5 lens in a Prontor II shutter (B, T, 1-175s). A remarkable feature of this Prontor II shutter is the fact that the lower speeds are on the right and the faster ones on the left, when seen from the front.
