  This is a solid piece of a manual SLR 35mm film camera manufactured by East German VEB Pentacon from Dresden, and produced from November 1975 to March 1978. Prakticas in general are well-designed and built to last.

• The Pentacon Six Tl

  
  The Pentacon Six line were cameras made by VEB Pentacon Dresden in the former East German Democratic Republic from the late 1950's to 1990. A professional camera with many accessories and lenses, the bayonet mount and the design of the camera were copied inside and outside Warsaw pact countries. Lenses for the Pentacon Six were made by Carl Zeiss Jena and were outstanding in both design and performance, however the camera its self can be a different story all together.
