Description from the seller

Collector's Item: Lumière Dialux Lighting Device "Grand Model" + Leather Case
Magnificent specimen of the prestigious Lyonnais folding camera, in remarkable condition.
Device Description
The Lumière Dialux is an emblematic device from the factory founded by the Lumière Brothers. This specimen is the "Grand Model" version (height 21 cm), the most impressive in the range.

- Bellows condition: Exceptional, completely intact and without cracks. It guarantees perfect light-tightness.
- Optics: Nacor 1:6.3 lens. Clear lenses.
- Mechanics: Smooth automatic opening system. The shutter triggers.
- The little extra: The device still contains its vintage era film loaded (numbers visible on the back), making it a true memory object.

Included accessory
