Vintage Revueflex EM 35mm SLR film camera supplied with a Carl Zeiss Jena DDR 135mm f/3.5 telephoto lens.
The Revueflex EM was introduced in the 1970s and is the West German Foto-Quelle branded version of the Soviet Zenit EM. It is a solid, predominantly mechanical SLR featuring the widely used M42 screw lens mount.
This example has been film tested and is fully working.
The camera body is in very good cosmetic condition, with only light signs of age and previous use.
Please note that the viewfinder is a little dull and has a dark line running down the centre. This does not prevent the camera from operating, but it is clearly visible when looking through the finder and has been taken into account in the condition and price.
The light meter is working.
Included is a Carl Zeiss Jena DDR 135mm f/3.5 manual-focus telephoto lens with M42 screw mount. The lens has a couple of small internal specks, but there are no signs of fungus. The focusing and aperture controls are working correctly.
The Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 is based on the classic Sonnar design, with four elements in three groups, approximately 1m minimum focusing distance and a 49mm filter thread. JAPB
The camera uses standard 35mm / 135 film.
No film is included.
