Hello
I would be grateful for any information about the camera to which this Voigtar lens & shuter combo belonged to. This was a camera for the Spanish market but there are certainly other similar models that used this same lens.

This is the lens


Thank you in advance

A 10.5cm or 11cm Voigtar lens was an option on some of the 6x9 Bessa Voigtländers possibly before and after WW2. I suspect it's for one of those. I have a couple here from either mid 1930s or 1940s. One has a f/4.5 Voigtar in a Prontor shutter speeded to 1/150. The other a Skopar in Compur shutter with from memory speeds to 1/250. The f/7.7 Voigtar in shutter with 1/25–1/100 plus B & T was the povvo pack option available mostly concurrently with the other lens/shutter types.
Cheers,
Brett
