History

The Kodak Retina IIa was a rangefinder, folding 35mm camera made by Kodak AG, the German subsidiary of Kodak. The designation Retina IIa can refer to two different camera production runs, separated by a gap of 10 years. Retina collectors and Retina historical specialists refer to Retina models by the factory Type number given before the camera name. The pre-WWII Type 150 Retina IIa was a redesign of the top plate, combined rangefinder/viewfinder and frame counter of the preceding Type 142 Retina II. It had a film advance knob on top and a depth-of-field scale wheel on the camera body's bottom. The 1950s models got a film advance lever instead. The Type 150 Retina IIa was manufactured from 1939 to 1941. Only 5107 pieces were produced. The war-time German government ordered a stop to all camera production at Kodak A.G. in the summer of 1941. From 1946, the Type 011 Retina II was in production until 1949. From 1949 to 1950, the Type 014 Retina II was manufactured.
