Someone not far from me has one of these for sale. Looks to be in decent shape, with case/strap in good shape. Says it's been in storage since 1965, so caveat emptor I guess. His asking price of $280 seems high for an "obsolete" camera, but nonetheless it's a Super Ikonta with a Tessar, albeit uncoated.
This is one of the D size Ikontas, prewar, 6 exposures on 616 film. There are available online spacers to enable 120 film to be used in cameras for 616; has anyone used these? They enable the film and spools to fit properly, but you have to watch the spacing since this is a wider negative. But I am curious to know how well these work.
