MTC Photography Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Zeiss Ikon Tenax is a mess Some are 24x24 format, some are 24x36 format. Why shared the same name ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMvW Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I'm guessing that names like "Brownie" and "Contaflex" really mess you up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTC Photography Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Zeiss Ikon had bad habit of using one name for different things Contaflex was a twin lens reflex Then it became single len reflex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_shriver Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 The German camera industry was hooked on complexity in both camera design and in their model structure and naming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two23 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If looking for a square format camera, always take a look at the photos of the viewfinder. If it isn't square in the photo, it won't be square on the film. :-) Kent in SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
