The camera shown here is an export version for the american market. My EXAKTA Varex VX looks slightly different (the flashlightplugs are different)but as long as I don�t have my photos back from the shop I have to present you this.
It was built in 1956 in the pure-metal way of producing is also equipped with this Carl Zeiss Jena TESSAR 2,8 / 50 mm lense. Nothing is glued but screwed and it seems to be what a famous joke would call : a piece of perfect german engeneering (grin)
