Chronology of cameras Agfa
Like the 4.5 x 6 model, this elegant folding camera has as its main interest the way it opens, with the same very particular types of spacers.
Its lens is less bright; it is an Agfa Bilinar which opens at f/11. The shutter offers a single speed of 1/25th of a second and the B setting. It has a viewfinder with movable frames that the 4.5 x 6 version does not have. The stand for using the camera in pose mode is hidden on the back of the lens board and can be deployed by rotation. There is also a device under the lens board for locking the shutter. Another small lever allows for the attachment of an additional lens, a portrait attachment for shots between 2.5 and 5 m.
In 1935, this camera was sold147 francs.
