AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Zeiss Ikon (Orix 308) - 10x15 sheet film camera - Goerz Dogmar 165mm lens

description of the object
In this one, a magnificent large-format Zeiss Ikon plate camera, almost certainly identifiable as the Orix (308) model or its direct post-merger Ica variant, produced in Germany around the late 1920s. This model uses large plates (10x15 cm), a format highly appreciated at the time for high-quality contact printing.

A feature of absolute value is the mounted lens: a Goerz Dogmar 165mm f/4.5, a dialyt scheme (4 symmetrical lenses) lens renowned for its sharpness and correction, superior to common basic models. The shutter is a reliable Compur.

The camera is distinguished by its double extension of the bellows and the decentrable front, characteristic features of professional machines of the era. It is complemented by a beautifully crafted brown leather bag.
