Agfa Karat 4.5

Agfa · Germany · 1939–1941 (2 years) · 135 film

The Karat 4.5 was a 35mm camera produced by Agfa between 1939 and 1941. Designed as a consumer model, it featured the common 135 film format and likely offered straightforward controls for amateur photographers. Its production was constrained by the onset of World War II, resulting in a relatively short manufacturing run. While functional for its time, it did not incorporate any major technological advancements or design innovations that set it apart from other contemporary 35mm cameras. Its primary significance lies as a representative example of mid-range consumer cameras made in Europe during the early years of WWII.
