Gorgeous...
My copy has a near perfect shutter curtain and a roll of double X loaded btw :)
I have a Meyer Optik Gorlitz 50/2.8 for it too, it currently sits on my EXA 1 though :)
Interesting information and I have to admit that while the Exakta is a joy to use from a mechanical point of view, then it is not equipped with the best finder I have seen, which make sense given your explanation. ---------- Post added 03-22-2016 at 06:04 PM ----------
Now that 100/3.5 I am very jealous of... very nice looking classics :)

I like my pentax cameras, but I have always been very impressed with this one: |

I actually do not know, but I hardly think it is the shutter as it is a fairly quiet design, similar in design to the shutter assembly found in most box cameras.
It had a sibling in the Click model
Thus Agfa had a.click clack line of simple consumer cameras offering a 6x6 or 6x9 format option.
The early ones (like the one in the picture) had all metal bodies where as the newer once were made from plastic.
here is a picture of a newer plastic version of the click: |

The Agfa Clack (such an amazing camera when used right)
One of the cheapest in my collection but one I keep coming back to :)

Mycurrent restoration project, Lipco Flexora by the look of it, but from what I can see it is a Flexora folding hood part on a flexo body (?)
I have had it completely disassembled twice, but it will need to be disassembled almost completely again to get to the shutterblades of the Prontor shutter and see if I can fix the sticky issue and a few other dificulties with it, but that is one of the gorgeous things about these old mechanical beasts and old shutters, they are manageable to repair and clean even for someone like me :) |

That makes two of us :)
Really enjoy experimenting with some of the older 6x9 box cameras these days :)

Analog really is something different and it is quite a collection you have.
