Reporter Prototype

1938

Prototype Reporter camera already fitted with focal plane shutter. The wheel on the right side of the body tensions the shutter and sets the shutter speed. Dedicated Industar-7 lens f/3,5 f=10,5cm with nice art-deco lens cap. The camera has no serial number yet. GOMZ logotype placed on the upper part of the front panel. Focusing was done by turning a knurled wheel located on the left side of the front panel of the camera. Very few cameras released in 1938 (only two examples known to exist).
