This feels weird...

'33 Voigtländer Inos II

@tomnorthfilm: Thanks for the idea of #FolderWeek.

The camera is a Semi Leotax R 6x4.5 folder, from around 1953. (A few more details are in the alt text from the original post.)

I didn't mention in the alt text that there's a problem with the rollers (I think) -- horizontal dark streaks on the film due to some kind of mechanical abrasion in the emulsion path. Photoshop non-AI retouch does OK with that, but it's tedious. I would use the camera a lot more were it not for that problem.

I've been on lookout for older #Voigtländer folders for well over a year. Now, within a few weeks, two opportunities presented itself: good condition, reasonable price.

What should a man do? Buy them both!

Behold: '31 Voigtländer Inos I and '33 Voigtländer Inos II

Shhh 🤫 Don't tell my wife. I might have bought a new camera. Actually, not that new; about 110 years old. It has a lens by H. Duploich Lens, Paris, France - a rectilinear lens,

That's a photo of the camera folded. I'm saying no more until I have seen it myself. It could be an interesting camera for #FolderWeek

Remember the Classic Car photos I took for #FolderWeek? I have now done a blog post, and you can see all the photos in one place. https://grainyphotos.com/events/martos-classic-car-show-2025/
