Braun Super Paxette Type: Super Paxette Lens: 45mm f/2.8 Year Introduced: 1953 The Super Paxette was introduced in 1953 and marked an important step in the evolution of Braun’s camera lineup. This model offered interchangeable lenses and a coupled rangefinder, making it a popular choice among serious amateur photographers. Unlike earlier Paxette models, which were simpler and often came with fixed lenses, the Super Paxette brought more flexibility thanks to its modular design. The coupled rangefinder enabled more accurate focusing—especially useful when using fast or longer lenses. The camera used a bayonet mount (specific to the Super Paxette series), and various lenses were available, including wide-angle and telephoto options. These features gave the Super Paxette a strong position in the competitive 35mm market of the 1950s. Braun, based in Nuremberg, Germany, entered the camera market shortly after World War II and quickly built a reputation for producing solid and affordable cameras. The Super Paxette helped Braun secure its place in the mid-range segment during the post-war boom in amateur photography. #BraunPaxette #SuperPaxette #35mmCamera #RangefinderCamera #FilmPhotography #VintageCamera #InterchangeableLens #CoupledRangefinder #1950sCamera #GermanEngineering #ShootFilmStayBroke #ClassicCamera #AnalogGear #CameraHistory #FilmIsNotDead
