Chronology of cameras KW
This is the "export" version of the Praktica FX and it should not be confused with the homonymous camera released in 1939.
The extract from the Sears catalog of 1955, hereunder, says a little more about this device.
Its presentation says it is German, without specifying that it comes from the East, it is strange so close to McCarthyism.
This is a low cost alternative to the Exakta VX. As an accessory, a prism allows making eye level aiming.
