[Leica] IMG: Another Lesser Known Camera from the Past

[Lluis Ripoll]

Nice camera Jim! I’ve never used a Exacta, I think it was a great camera for his time, even today, because I usually see great lenses on e-Bay with Exacta mount much more cheaper than in other mounts.

Thanks for sharing

The Exacta shutter expired, so I turned to the Exa for holiday snapshots.  It synched nicely with my Braun Hobby flash, and, even with its limited shutter speed, gave me excellent images.
