A Kodak Retina camera with a Retina Xenar f:3.5/50mm lens and Compur Rapid shutter represents a significant part of Kodak's line of 35mm folding cameras, known for excellent German optics and robust construction, originating from the 1930s and continuing into the 1950s. These cameras were built in Germany by the former Dr. August Nagel Camerawerk, a company Kodak acquired in 1931, aimed at competing with high-end German cameras like Leicas. The specific Compur Rapid shutter was a common leaf shutter design, while the Retina Xenar was a reliable, often uncoated, Schneider-Kreuznach lens known for sharp images and pleasant, old-fashioned rendering, though some later versions were coated.
