AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Up for auction is a prestigious and monumental large-format technical camera: the Plaubel Peco Universal (Dual Format 12x16.5 / 9x12), produced in Germany in Frankfurt by Plaubel from the 1950s onward.

The lot includes an imposing professional Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar 1:5.6/300 lens, mounted on a Compur shutter and the original Plaubel plate.

The lot is presented in good general condition, functioning.

Optics. The Schneider Symmar lenses are in excellent preserved condition with no scratches. The original front lens cap is included.

Mechanical. The lot has been tested and is functioning.

Aesthetics. Good overall condition of the entire structure and the barrel, as clearly documented by the photographs. The stamped metal housings, the graduated rails, and the clamping knobs retain a good visual impact, displaying their original textured finish, free of structural dents, showing only the normal light signs of wear consistent with age. The black foldable bellows maintain excellent compactness and light-tightness. At the rear stands the splendid and intact original frosted glass that bears the two two-color reference scales for formats 9x12 and 12x16.5.

Tracked international shipping, fully insured and professionally ultra-protective packing to ensure maximum safety during transport.
