I use the 115mm supplementary lens on this camera, with lens shade. A hefty, solid piece of kit, giving contrasty results with black and white film. Used to stare with wonder at these masterpieces in camera shop windows in the 50's.
Yo tengo una, era de mi Padre saco muchas diapositivas y gracias a ella tengo foto de mí😊, desde muy temprana edad me gusto la fotografía y se la pedí para aprender con ella, me encantaba la sensación del ruido al disparar, no lo he escuchado nunca más en otra excelente Cámara Alemana. Gracias por el video
I got one of these last year for 40 sterling on ebay -- just put a roll in today -- took a while to figure out how to use the meter but I have it now !
Any idea of who can make repairs on this camera? I purchased on a few months ago. Tested it and it worked fine. One month later the film advance quit. Aside from that the camera appears to be in great shape.
Hello, I've been trying to investigate the worth/value of this camera. I inherited it from my grandfather and would like to give it maintanence. Someone tried to buy it from me, but aside from the fact that it has sentimental value to me, I'm not sure what this kind of camera is worth. I have it on display on my room, alongside my other vintage and work cameras. It's in great condition, has it's original brown leather case with a Carl Zeiss Nr 26800 Tessar f | 2.8 50 mm lens. I would appreciate the information if anyone knows!
These are super cameras, well made in the early 1960's, they were expensive. I think they are currently undervalued, prices on ebay range from £20 to £80, you will see some priced between £100 - £200 but they are not selling at these prices. £60 would be a good price for a working camera. My camera was given to me by a family friend and I can understand the sentimental value. They do take super photos! Thanks for watching!
@@sr_ian Due to the quirky lens design and operation it will never be worth a lot like a leica or nikon -- keep it and run a few rolls a year and enjoy !
@@sr_ian I just shot a roll with mine and quite a few exposures did not come out == I suspect leaf shutter malfunction -- hopefully you have better luck
