Praktica

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Praktica, the successor of Zeiss Ikon, is mainly a camera brand name from Dresden, (eastern) Germany, long time the world's largest camera production location.

Praktica is already for some longer time the united successor of several international brands like Zeiss Ikon, Contax (this brand belongs to Zeiss today), Exakta, Pentacon and many more. The firm collapsed after the reunification of Germany in 1990 but now it is back onto market with several brands producing car industry products, 3D-LCD-screens and also still cameras and lenses under own and also for more known international brands.

One of the first inventions, which is still known today, of that firm was the roll film SLR camera in 1936. In the east block countries the firm´s products are more known than in the western world. They produce both, budget lenses (most times small, not very light strong and with slow autofocus but good in optical quality) and highest price products and also optical equipment for space programs of the US, Western Europe and the Russian Federation.
