Primus German Folder Camera (6x6 6x9)
Photo thanks to Mr. Billy Glass - [email protected]
This camera is a good example of the classic German folder camera
featuring two formats through the use of a mask to cut down 6x9 to 6x6
format. Such cameras can provide a compact multi-format and inexpensive
approach to medium format photography.
High quality German 120 folder, 6x6 or 6x9, all though 6x6 mask is not there. The camera is in very good condition. Bellows is perfect, lens is a Schneider-Kreuznach Radionar 10.5cm f4.5 with scale focus, and is very clear. Shutter is a Compur with speeds of 1 to 250 T & B, and works well at all speeds, but the self timer is a little sticky. Also has pop up viewfinder w/lenses in it. This camera is not in the McKeown book, or any other book that I have seen, so it may be uncommon.
