Praktica B200 Electronic + Pentacon Prakticar 50mm f/1.8 MC
A reliable East German SLR with a fast multi-coated prime lens

The Praktica B200 Electronic is a classic 35mm SLR camera produced by VEB Pentacon in the former East Germany during the early 1980s. Known for its robust build and electronic shutter control, it offers aperture-priority auto exposure and manual mode. This version comes with the Pentacon Prakticar 50mm f/1.8 MC lens, a sharp and versatile prime with a bright maximum aperture—ideal for portraits, low-light photography, and everyday use. With its multi-coating, it reduces flare and improves contrast.
