Description from the seller
Two vintage 6x9cm folding cameras, sold as non-working, decorative items:
1. Voigtländer Bessa
Exterior in nice condition, clean and intact, normal signs of use for its age. The camera opens and closes well, the bellows are intact. The shutter works, but the long shutter speeds are not accurate (they are very quick). The actual fast shutter speeds (25th, 50th and 100th) and B and T modes work well. The iris also functions correctly, and focusing is smooth. The lens shows surface wear and slight traces of fungus. No other functions have been tested.
2. Agfa Billy Record.
In heavily used condition. The exterior has various signs of wear and age. The viewfinder opens and closes correctly, and the bellows are intact. The shutter works, and the speeds appear to be correct. The iris and focus (which only has two positions) both work well. The lens is in poor condition, it has fungus, dust, and other blemishes. Not tested with film, no other functions tested.
Tracked shipping by Colissimo, UPS, Mondial Relay or DPD, depending on the destination and item.
Seller's Story
I am new to Catawiki but have been selling good-quality used photographic equipment on online marketplaces for twenty years. I am a professional photographer, but buying and selling equipment has become an enjoyable parallel career. I love finding, testing and repairing older cameras and lenses almost as much as I love taking photographs.
I'm happy to answer any questions on my listings.
