Just arrived: Agfa Isolette II with Solinar 75mm F/3.5 and Prontor SV shutter.

My late Fathers Zeiss Super Ikonta 531/2 brand new from Stuttgart back in 1953, he must have been as proud to own it back then as I am now. I have put a new skin on her and have a new set off bellows goin on her next year, otherwise she loos as good now.

My Voigtlqnder Perkeo 11 takes incredible black and white images, it is a beautiful camera. And it’s size is an engineering masterpiece.
This now reconditioned Agfa Billy Record II came to me with the Solinar fitted to a Synchro-Compur.
It took me years to figure a safe way to unfreeze the front focusing cell. - Upon which time, it received the needed new bellows.

Without a doubt, a second tier medium format folder - with that said, when folded it's a very compact package for the format.
With regards to looks, the camera still has a bit of the Art Deco charm of Agfa's earlier versions of the Record..
