Analog SLR camera PETRI V6II is held by Roscheider Hof Open Air Museum. Museum description: The Petri V 6II is an analog single-lens reflex camera by the Japanese company Kuribayashi/Petri, which was founded around 1900 and had to close in 1975. They built robust, solid cameras; the V 6II is one of their last. It has a proprietary bayonet mount. With a turn upward of a locking ring directly on the lens, the lens detaches and falls into the hand. It has neither shutter-priority nor aperture-priority automatic exposure. The camera is in good condition; not much is known about Petri cameras here. It may also have been manufactured by Cosina. A Petri 1:1.8 / f 55 mm standard lens is mounted on this camera. The museum record gives measurements L: 140 mm B: 50 mm H: 95 mm. These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
