The Agfa Karat (1937 onward) is a folding 35mm camera line made by Agfa (Munich, Germany). Multiple variants over 21 years of production (1937–1958), shifting from the original **Agfa Karat cassette** (an 18-exposure proprietary cassette format) to standard 35mm in later models. The **Karat 36** (1948) and **Karat IV** (1956) were the post-war standard-35mm versions with rangefinder and Solinar / Solagon lenses.

Agfa launched the Karat line in 1937 with the proprietary Karat cassette format. Post-war variants shifted to standard 35mm: Karat 36 (1948), Karat IV (1956). The line ended 1958 as Agfa shifted resources to other camera designs.
For collectors of German pre-war and post-war folding compacts, the Karat is iconic. Used at $120–280. The Solagon 50/2 is sharp; the Solinar 50/2.8 is competent.
Lens fixed (varies by variant).
