From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kodak Retinette is the name of a classic series of cameras manufactured by the Eastman Kodak company. They were introduced in 1939 as a less expensive alternative to the Kodak Retina series.[1] The first models were of the folding type using bellows and their lenses had three elements as compared to the four element Tessar lenses (Greek: Tessera meaning four) of the Retina series.[2] The first non-folding (rigid) variant was introduced in 1954 with the model 022.[2] They most often featured Schneider Kreuznach Reomar lenses but, sometimes, Rodenstock Reomar lenses were installed.[2][3] The Rodenstock lenses were based on the original Schneider Kreuznach triplet (three optical element) design.[3] Kodak Anastigmat Angénieux lenses were also used especially for the French market.[4] Common shutters included Compur–Rapid as well as various Pronto, Vero and Kodak models.[2][5]
