Description:
The Agfamatic 126 is a simple viewfinder camera for square pictures on 126 film cartridges, made by Agfa in about 1969.[1] McKeown states that it is very similar to the Autostar X-126.[1] The body of the camera is plastic, and measures 3 1 8 wide x 2 1 2 tall x 2 deep. It has a knurled wheel to advance the film on the back, and tripod socket on the bottom. There is a socket on the top of the camera for standard flashcubes. A PX825 battery is required to fire the flash this fits inside the film compartment (the similar Autostar X-126 uses X-flashcubes, such as Magicubes, which do not require a battery to fire). There is no lightmeter behind the panel on the front the camera has fixed exposure, and fixed focus.

The camera was made in Germany, France, Brazil and India.[1]
