KODAK RETINA Nr. 148 (1939-1941)

 

This was the last pre-war model. There exist many variations differing by details in the top's design, distance scale, shutters, and lenses.

Number 1: Distance scale in meters and feet, Compur shutter, lens Kodak-Anastigmat Ektar. The mushroom shaped back door lever and the little hole near the rewind lever show that this is a pretty early version.

Number 2: Distance scale in meters, Compur-Rapid shutter, lens Kodak-Anastigmat Ektar. The little hole is gone but the mushroom shaped back door lever is still there.

Number 3: Distance scale in meters, Compur shutter, lens Kodak-Anastigmat Ektar. Here the opening lever has changed to a rectangular shape.

Number 4: Distance scale in meters and feet, Compur shutter, lens Kodak-Anastigmat Ektar. Here in the latest version the arrow of the frame counter index is black.
