AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a vintage bellows-type film camera by DORIS, fitted with a PERFA-ANASTIGMAT lens.
The camera features a classic folding bellows design, which opens for use and folds compactly for storage. This construction was typical of European cameras from the 1920s to the early 1950s.

The PERFA-ANASTIGMAT lens is an anastigmat design, developed to correct optical distortion and peripheral aberrations. Lenses of this type were valued for their practical performance and clean image rendering during the period.

Bellows are intact with no visible tears
Distance (focus) ring works
Aperture ring does not move
Shutter is faulty and does not operate correctly
Lens shows no visible scratches, but there is some internal dust
Camera has not been tested with film and is sold as a collectible or restoration item

Additional information
Shutter speeds marked: B, 1, 2, 5, 10, 1/25 – 1/200 (mechanical, no batteries required)
