Details

When you think of the brand name 'Durst', you don't immediately think of photo cameras, but of enlarging equipment and darkroom supplies. Nevertheless, the Italian Durst company in Bolzano has indeed launched a few cameras of which this 'Durst Automatica' can even be called special. Its modern styling reminds him of a 1970s camera rather than the mid-1950s in which it was built. The Durst 'Automatica' owes that modern appearance mainly to the sleek design of the camera body and the way in which the film advance lever and film rewind button are beautifully integrated into the top cover and only have to come out of the top when transporting the film and when rewinding a full-shot 35mm film.
