  • Replacement for the missing take-up spool: Many used Exakta bodies arrive without a spool, and without it the shutter stays silent and the film unexposed.
  • Clear color coding: blue stands for the Varex series and prevents confusion with the technically different Exa spools (color code green).
  • Smooth film transport: The spool grips the film and prevents it from tearing during winding.

Compatibility

This film spool is compatible with the following models of the Exakta series:

  • Exakta Varex VX 1000
  • Exakta Varex VX 500
  • Exakta Varex IIa
  • Exakta Varex IIb
  • Exakta Varex VX (US version: Exakta VX)

Note: For Exa models (Exa I, II, Ia, Ib etc.) you need the version with the green color code.

What's included

1x film spool (take-up spool) for Exakta Varex series (color code: blue)

Technical details

  • Material: engineering plastic
  • Color: blue (for model identification)
  • Fit: designed specifically for the Exakta Varex
  • SKU: 1195

Description

The Exakta Varex is a classic of camera engineering, but when you buy a used body, one small but crucial part is often missing: the film spool. We know this problem from our own experience, which is why we make the replacement ourselves.

So that the spool is not mixed up with the similar-looking but technically different spools of the Exa series (color code green), we make it in blue right from the start. This makes it easy to tell apart in your camera bag. The newly made material is sturdy and durable, not brittle old plastic. This turns your display-case camera back into a workhorse.

Customer reviews

Transparency note: As a thank-you for a published review after an order, we send every customer a discount code for their next order, regardless of the star rating.

    After a purchase we ask for a review by email. New reviews appear automatically; we read them afterwards and never remove one because of its star rating. “Verified purchase” means the review came through the review link of an order in our shop. “Verified” marks older reviews that our previous review service, Judge.me, had labelled as verified. Reviews imported from Amazon are labelled and not included in the average. How we collect and check reviews
