Possibly the prettiest 1950s SLR, the Wirgin Edixa-Mat Model B and model B-L are strudy, reliable, and fun cameras with a great feature set for their time. These cameras would have been the hallmark of a professional 35mm photographer in the 1950s and their M42 lens mount (with flappy-paddle aperture control!) meant they could use any of the common M42 lenses on the market. This camera came with a Killfitt 4CM f/2.8 double-extension macro lens, an all-in-one walk-around lens that could go from distant to macro with just a few helicoid turns.
