I still use a Weston Master V with mine (Rolleicord Va). Selenium and still works accurately and well with an Invercone for incident light readings where needed. It seems appropriate to me to have a meter than is in keeping with the vintage of the camera.

While I mainly use Zeiss cameras, I also have a Solida I and a Solida II and one has a similar opening arrangement while the other has the usual top button. The Ennagon is a very good lens capable of pleasing result.

Last post prices were in pounds sterling.

I own both types: Ikoflex Ia and IIa (both with Tessar lenses) and a Rollecord Va (with Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar). The Ikoflexes were developed by Zeiss as a competitor to the market-leading Rolleis of the time (1950s). In terms of quality they are comparable and the lenses mentioned are all 4-element types. As previously mentioned, price depends on condition and model number. Current *B** going rates for good examples might be about ?60 for the Ia and about ?75-?100 for the IIa and Rolleicord Va. It all depends on what a buyer is prepared to pay (I've recently seen some go for more). All are very useable cameras indeed if working correctly.
