Classic East German SLR kit with Exakta Varex IIa body and Carl Zeiss Pancolar 50mm f/2.

The Exakta Varex IIa paired with the Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 50mm f/2 is a classic East German SLR kit combining one of the most influential camera designs with a legendary standard lens. The Varex IIa features an interchangeable viewfinder system and the distinctive left-hand shutter release that Exakta cameras are known for.

The Pancolar 50mm f/2 is highly regarded among vintage lens enthusiasts for its warm colour rendering and pleasing bokeh characteristics. The six-element Gauss-type design delivers sharp results with a distinctive character that modern lenses rarely replicate. Multi-coated versions offer improved contrast over earlier single-coated examples.

The Exakta bayonet mount accepts a wide range of lenses from Carl Zeiss Jena, Meyer-Optik Gorlitz, and other manufacturers. The camera's interchangeable viewfinder system was innovative for its time, accepting waist-level, pentaprism, and magnifying finders for different shooting situations and applications.

A significant piece of photographic history that remains usable today, this kit appeals to collectors, vintage lens enthusiasts, and photographers drawn to the distinctive character of classic Zeiss Jena optics. The left-handed operation requires adaptation but becomes natural with practice and becomes part of the camera's charm.
