Deckel DKL lens mount allowing for full flash synchronization at all speeds, and a selection of available lenses including the Voigtländer-Zoomar lens. It uses a Synchro-Compur leaf shutter and the F. This camera is fun and easy to use, and produces some of the best images I’ve ever shot using a 35mm SLR. The Voigtländer Bessamatic Deluxe is an outstanding camera in appearance, design, and performance.

Deckel “DKL” mount as the Kodak Retina Reflex, but a slight variation in the lens coupling means the lenses are not interchangeable between the two systems.
The Bessamatic competed against other German leaf shutter SLRs like the Zeiss-Ikon Contaflex and Kodak Retina Reflex and compared to those models is said to be more reliable and easier to use. It also received an improved, and much easier method for resetting the exposure counter. It is a slightly improved model to the original Bessamatic from 1959 with the addition of a T-shaped “Judas window” above the exposure meter which allows both aperture and shutter speed settings to be read from within the viewfinder. This is a Voigtländer Bessamatic Deluxe made by Voigtländer AG Braunschweig between the years of 19.
