Viewfinder camera Agfa Optima 553 sensor is held by Roscheider Hof Open Air Museum. Museum description: The "little black one" from Agfa! Viewfinder camera for 24x36 35mm film with a strikingly large viewfinder. The lens is an Agfa Solitar 1:2.8/40 mm. The shutter release is once again an orange, sensitive sensor button. It fits very well in the hand and is just as easy to operate. It has a black carrying strap attached to the left of the body. It passes through an eyelet on the camera case and therefore cannot be lost. The museum record gives measurements L: 100 mm B: 50 mm H: 67 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.
