Description from the seller

Realist 45 Stereocamera
The camera was introduced in 1955 by Realist Inc. USA, but was actually produced by Iloca in Hamburg, Germany. The aperture and shutter speed are set with a ring around the lenses. 2x Cassar S 35mm f/3.5 lenses. Vero shutters with 4 speeds + B. (Shutter of this camera is defective.) Aperture f/3.5 – f/16. Focusing with a focusing wheel; focusing takes place internally, no moving external parts. The camera takes 15-16 stereo pairs of 23x24 on 135mm film with 20 exposures. The viewfinder is located under the lenses at the bottom of the camera. On the bottom there are handy instructions for loading the film, removing the back, and suggestions for focusing settings; there are also two exposure guides: one for daylight and one for flash. (These are intended for use with 10 ASA film, Kodachrome from the 1950s and flash lamps No. 5B).
Dimensions W x H x D = +/- 180 x 89 x 55 mm. Weight = 745 grams.

Shutter of this camera is defective. The camera is otherwise in good condition with no visible signs of use!
