This is my Bessa folding camera (first series, pre-war).

The picture was taken with Ricoh GXR-M / KMZ Industar-22 50/3.5 at F8. Converted in B&W with authentically effect for the pre-war times.



This type of camera was made in Braunschweig/Germany 1935-1937. The lens serial number points rather to 1934.
The shown model is the most expensive variant with the Voigtar 10.5cm/F3.5 lens and Compur-Rapid shutter 1 to 1/400 sec., B, T and self-timer.
It's in a fully functional state and can take 6x9cm or 4.5x6cm negatives on roll-film 120. The lens is not coated.

Picture is clickable for larger view.
