Chronology of cameras Carena
The Carena brand is registered in the early 1950s by Coop, a Swiss distribution group resulting from the merger of several companies.
It concerns photographic equipment. It is renewed several times by Coop, then by Interdiscount, a subsidiary of Coop specializing in the sale of electronic and photographic equipment.
Interdiscount was created in 1970 and relies on a dense network of branches. In 1973, there were 42 branches throughout Switzerland. Abroad, Interdiscount relies on existing networks. In Germany, in the early 1980s, Interdiscount acquired shares in the struggling company Photo Porst.
The KSM 1 as its figure indicates, is the first of a new range that will expand the Carena brand. The K of its designation indicates the use of the Pentax bayonet.
A KSM 2 will succeed this first model. It will bring the display of the diaphragm in the viewfinder, then the KSM 3 which will be motorisable.
There will be finally a Carena KS to close the series.
The manufacturing is done by Cosina.
