Agfa Colour King 200 Tele

Agfa · Germany

The Colour King 200 Tele by Agfa appears to be a straightforward, fixed-lens 35mm camera likely produced during the 1950s or 1960s, a period when Agfa focused heavily on accessible color photography. As a "Tele" model, it probably featured a longer focal length lens compared to the standard Colour King variants, intended for capturing distant subjects with slightly greater magnification. Designed for the mass market, it prioritized simplicity and ease of use, likely offering basic zone focusing or perhaps a simple shutter speed selector alongside an aperture control, making it ideal for everyday snapshots and family photography rather than advanced creative work. Its significance lies in being a representative example of mid-century consumer camera design, embodying Agfa's efforts to popularize color film with affordable, functional equipment.
