    Description

    Agfa Isolette II folding camera.   Apotar 1:4.5 / 85 lens, Prontor - S shutter
    The two problems with most of  these cameras are light leaks in the bellows and dried out grease in the focus ring of the lens.  This camera received a new bellows and a fresh CLA by Jurgen Kreckel at certo6.com in April 2021.
    I purchased this camera from an eBay seller in Germany.  The cost of the new bellows and CLA  from certo6.com was 5.00 plus shipping. Hoping to at least recover the refurb cost.  During the Covid lockdown I went on a buying frenzy and purchased too many vintage cameras.  Please help me out!!
    No batteries and no plastic.  This is a solid and reliable piece of kit and ready to be used.
    6x6 medium format. Uses 120 roll film.
    Some have likened this camera to having a Hasselblad in your pocket.
    Lens is clean and shows no sign of fungus, hazing, or separation.
    The mechanical self timer is fully operational.
    Shutter speeds: B, 1, 1/2, 1/5, 1/10, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, and 1/300.
    Aperture adjustable from f 4.5 to F32.
    Take up spool included.
    This camera does not include a carrying case.   It conveniently fits in a jacket pocket, camera bag, or backpack.
    Manual focus and exposure settings.  I use a light meter app on my iPhone and a laser distance measure to set the exposure and focus.
    Ships worldwide from Bulgaria with BG Post for .00.  Please allow 10 days to Europe and 3 weeks to USA/Canada.
