AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This auction features a very rare Robot II. The camera was used in German combat aircraft during World War II and is marked with the appropriate signs, such as an F - serial number on the body and 'Luftwaffen Eigentum' on both the body and the Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar 2/4cm lens.

The camera shows signs of use, but for a camera of this kind, you wouldn't want any other patina. It looks nicely used, and technically everything seems to be in order; the spring motor and shutter work, but nothing else has been tested. The Biotar lens is neat and easy to operate.

In addition to the camera with original cassettes, an (exact copy) user manual is also included, which describes how to install and operate this camera in the aircraft. Although it is a copy, it is still rare documentation that is almost impossible to find.

Although a very special plot and certainly an asset for your collection. View the photos, as they are part of the description.

The camera is well packed and sent by registered mail.
