Blue film spool for Exakta Varex, VX 1000, IIa, IIb

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

• Exakta Varex VX 1000

Description

The Exakta Varex is a classic of camera technology, but when buying a used body, one small yet crucial part is often missing: the film spool. We know the problem from personal experience, which is why we manufacture the replacement ourselves.

To prevent the spool from being confused with the similar-looking but technically different spools from the Exa series (green color code), we manufacture it directly in blue. This makes identification in your camera bag unambiguous. The newly manufactured material is robust and durable, not brittle old plastic. This turns your display camera back into a working tool.
