Voigtländer Vitoret

The Voigtländer Vitoret, introduced in 1960, was designed as an affordable alternative to the Vito series, offering a simple and accessible entry point into 35mm photography. Despite its budget-friendly price of £12 in 1963, the Vitoret aimed to deliver reliable performance, with eight successive models gradually improving upon earlier designs.
