Kodak Retina IIc Xenon 50 mm f2.8

Kodak Retina IIc Schneider Xenon 50 mm f2.8 made in Germany
This is a Retina with the famous Xenon lens.

The camera's exterior is clean with no scratches, scuffs, or dents. However, there is a slight scratch on the edge just below the Retina engraving on the top (see photo 3).

The lens shutter works at all speeds, including B. The aperture also works. The focus ring operates with very smooth torque.

The viewfinder is in good condition, and the double image in the center diamond pattern makes focusing easy. Infinity focus is also accurate. Cleaning the viewfinder might make it even clearer, but it would increase the price.

I have confirmed its operation by loading a dummy film. Film winding and rewinding are OK.

The lens has been lightly cleaned. When viewed with a penlight, there is no mold or clouding, only very slight dust, and it appears to be in good condition (photos 13, 14).

Since the aperture and shutter speed are set using the EV system, those familiar with Hasselblad etc. won't need instructions, but I will also include an instruction manual for beginners (including film loading, film counter setting, film rewinding, and other precautions). It's a fun camera once you get used to it, so even beginners can use it.

No returns, no refunds.

My home's dehumidified storage contains 1000 lenses and cameras. I am selling them before they become part of an estate sale. Please see my profile for the reason I am selling.
