This is a sturdy and good quality camera made by Kodak in West Gremany. My camera has a Rodenstock Reomar 45mm f/2.8 lens that looks sharp and of good quality. Focusing is manual having to guess the distance and select it on the lens. There are 3 common distances where the lens locks with a click.
For the exposure control there is a selenium meter that is coupled with the aperture lever. First we select the desired speed and by moving the aperture lever a needle in the viewfinder must be set in the middle of a ruler, then a correct exposure is expected.
Unfortunately my camera has a very weak selenium cell that makes control of the exposure useless.
I also had to clean the camera, removed the lens and cleaned the shutter, but it was not mounted correctly, so my pictures were unfocused.
Here are the best of them, with a Fujifilm 100ASA
This is a panorama made from three pictures taken from the same spot
