THE KODAK RETINA REFLEX IV.  35mm film SLR. Highly collectable

Not tested and sold 'as is'

About the camera: As I wrote about the cameras history already in my , I will focus here on the differences between the two cameras. The Retina Reflex IV was the last 35mm SLR produced by Kodak from 1965 to 1967, followed by the 126film model.
Like the Reflex S, the Reflex IV works fully manual, is equipped with a central shutter featuring a self-timer and speeds from B to 1/500, the coupled aperture/ speed dial, a tripod mount, an accessory shoe and the unusual rewind lever on the bottom. To the differences:

• The camera is far lighter, maybe due to the use of more plastic parts, for example, the aperture wheel
• The opening mechanism was simplified, from turn the round lever to reveal the opening button then touch it to push the button protected by the small safety rim
• The shutter release was moved to the front of the body, like on some other cameras of this era
• The frame counter is on the bottom of the camera, close to the advance lever.

• The cold accessory shoe evolved into a hot shoe so you can use any modern flashgun with this camera without a pc sync cable
• The rewind wheel was replaced by a rewind Kurbel
• The lightmeters reading is displayed in the viewfinder
• The speed and aperture settings can be viewed through the viewfinder as well
