    Krauss Peggy II

    LAUNCHED 1932

    GUIDE PRICE £250-300

    Following hot on the heels of the Leica II and Contax I, the Peggy II is now both a usable camera and a collectable. The first model had no rangefinder, so the second version is the one to go for. It's a quality camera from Germany, usually found with a prestigious Tessar lens and shutter speeds of 1-1/300sec. When not in use, the lens panel folds flat against the body to make an easily pocketable package.
