Received some scale focus beauties last month.

Need to take some better pictures of the Welta Weltax and Wirgin Edinex I.
The Weltax is currently undergoing a CLA. B and T settings aren't working on the Compur shutter.
The Edinex just needed a little surface cleaning.
 
Better (but not great shot) of my Wirgin Edinex I

I like the compactness and it feels reasonably sturdy. The little film hatch at the back is a bit of a light leak waiting to happen though.
 
I believe that this is actually one of those mythical rare cameras.

Agfa Jsorette (1936) dual-format (6x6, 6x4.5) with 8.5cm f4.5 Agfa Solinar in Compur-Rapid shutter:

I will post a better picture when the battery for my digital has recharged.
 
Can't comment on the first but the name is Isorette. It's a fancy Germanic script that looks like a J but is actually a capital I.
The first version was the Jsorette (later anglicized to Isorette, then changed to Jsolette/Isolette in 1938). This is that first version (1936), with "Jsorette" embossed on the leatherette on the front plate, and I have yet to find another image of one with the 8.5cm Solinar lens in Compur-Rapid shutter.
 
already sell this but would like to get the black one in nice condition.. although its odd operational, I find its really convenient for EDC..
