Ikonta II with either 105mm Opton Tessar or 75mm Novar ?
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...4138 200&rd=1
I'm surprised to see a 105mm lens on a 6x6 folding camera. Was that common? |

I'm quite sure that's a 6x9. I don't own a 6x9 folder, but it sure doesn't look like my 6x6 Isolette... Maybe Stacey can comment. David J. Littleboy Tokyo, Japan |

Littleboy Tokyo, Japan It is mislabelled. It is an Ikonta C (523/2). 6x9 format. |

Actually the spreader mechanism of the 6x6 Ikontas/Nettars should look similar to that of the Isolettes. All 6x9 Ikontas have that slotted guide rails you can see on the pics. Winfried |

It's a 6X9 as the 6X6's front door opens down, not sideways. The other giveaway, besides the 105mm lens, is the bellows isn't square. All the 6X6 and 6X4.5 had some sort of 75 or 80mm lens depending on who made it and when. -- Stacey |

Hi
It most likely has a 6x6 insert. Many 6x9 filders have two red windows and a 6x6 insert for both 6x6 and 6x9 shooting. Larry |
