I my memory serves me right, many versions (2,3) of the Werra have interchangeable lens. My question is can the lens for different models of the Werra be interchanged?

My second question is whether 60 Euro for a werramatic is a steal or is it a rip-off. I know it is a nice camera :bang: and I know I am suffering from GAS :bang: :bang: :bang: but how much $$ is a reasonable amount for this little camera.
 
60 Euros for a Werramatic is about right; more so if the meter is still responsive and accurate. Be sure to check the cap as they tend to chip and crack quite easily.

I believe that 50/2.8 Tessar, 35/2.8 Flektogon, and 100/4 Cardinar lenses can be swapped between the Werra models that feature interchangeable lenses. I have a couple of Werramatics and the set of lenses. (The Flektogon and Cardinar do tend to make the camera a bit front heavy and ungainly.) Definitely neat cameras: quiet and stylish but idiosyncratic.
