of it?

Of course to answer this it would help to know what size Technika

this
is. 23, 45, 57, 810 or something else.

From the number you provide for the body it would appear to be a

Medezin
series camera which predates the post WW II models which started

with
the Technika 3. That means that it may not use film sizes that are
common today.

A hint as to the focal length of the lens would also help.


Hi Bob,

I very apreciate your help as a Linhof expert ;-)
I was looking at camera yesterday once again.
It's 9x12 picture size.
Body sn. was correct, 19475
Lens - Zeiss tessar 4,5-32, focal lenght 150 mm (15 cm)
Lens sn. 2433701
Lens shutter - Compur 1-200 sec.
Thera are no marks after RF, just something on a lens plate
that maybe view-finder was sticked to it.
The back has the knobs on the four corners.
No matte. Lots of work to do with this camera.
I'm starting to like her a lot ;-)

Best regards
Martin


You have either the early version of the Medizin 9x12 or the Technika
II. It does not take commonly available holders or film.
