Chronology of cameras Agfa
The Agfa Karat 36 resembles a Karat but does not use the Karat cartridge. It uses the 135 cartridge developed by Kodak. This allows for a capacity of 36 exposures, and the camera is modified to enable rewinding the film into the supply cartridge before opening the back.
There are four versions with renowned lenses: Agfa Solinar 50/2.8 (4 elements), Agfa Solagon 50/2.0 (6 elements), Rodenstock Heligon 50/2.0 (6 elements), Schneider Xenon 50/2.0 (6 elements).
Notably, there's a rapid winding lever on the right side that requires a unique backward movement to arm the camera.
