Edixa-mat-Reflex

The Edixa-mat-Reflex cameras showed a few minor improvements over the previous Edixa types. The essential progress was the back flipping mirror. On previous cameras there was no finder image after the shot until the film was advanced. On this new camera type the image came back immediately. There were three sub-types, the present one (Mod. C-L) was fitted with a light meter, however independent from shutter and diaphragm.

All the cameras named Edixa were real system cameras. This photo should better explain what I mean with system camera.
