riccardo_mottola Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I have a folder whici I am not able to identify, I'd like to know the manufacturer, the model and the age of the camera.<br> I was not able to find any marking on the camera except on the lens. The lens-shutter assebly is pretty standard for the thirties I think: a screw-in lens-shutter: the shutter being an IBSOR and the lens a Rodenstock Trinar-Anastigmat München, 1:4.5 f=10.5cm. Focus with a lever that moves the front plate, with botha wireframe finder and a tiny reflex finder.<br> The folder and camera leather are of bluish color, not so common.<br> The whole front assembly looks to me pretty similar to some Nagel camera (the front, rimmed screws of which one is missing).<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riccardo_mottola Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 the shutter-lens assembly. I Think I pretty decently restored the IBSOR shutter, although I have yet to test it. Who manufactured IBSOR?<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winfried_buechsenschuetz1 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 All I can tell you is that the Ibsor shutter was made by A.Gauthier Culmbach (AGC), the manufacturer of the Pronto/Prontor shutters. AFAIK the Ibsor is a rather simple shutter which does not need to be cocked, it is cocked by pressing the release lever. Many of the unidentified 6x9 folders actually were made by Welta or Balda, the latter company was the king of rebranding in pre-war Germany.

patric_dahl_n Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Hm, difficult. The last picture made me think of Ernemann though. https://www.ritzcam.com/catalog/images/AplanL.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riccardo_mottola Posted March 27, 2007 Author Share Posted March 27, 2007 indeed, the casing looks pretty similar to what you displayed, Patric. Also the handle looks of similar make. Of course the lens is completely different and mine has a sports viewfinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecollopy Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I have this camera. Two in fact. One I have has the Ibsor shutter with a Schnieder Jaconar f/4.5 lens. The other has the f/8 Special-Aplanat in a Vario. They are very cheaply built but great little picture takers after the red window is permanently sealed. Mine are typically black but have a amall D. R. P. stamped inside the take up spool compartment. Other than that there are no markings on the camera itself whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
