Rare Voigtlander Bergheil 10x15 CM Folding Camera with 170 mm F6.5 Kodak Antistigmat Lens, Ilex shutter and detachable Chess United Rangefinder. Plus Light Meter. ***


*** Listing now includes vintage Norwood Light Meter shown in photos. ***


This 10x15 CM camera is the largest and least common of the multiple sizes of Voigtlander’s Bergheil line of folding cut-sheet film “plate” cameras.


Included is the Kodak lens and Ilex shutter that was on the camera when I bought it used (vintage) in NYC in 1986.


One “of the period” single-sided Zeiss Ikon 10x15 CM Film Holder is also included (not shown), plus a modern stainless cable release.


[Somewhere in storage I have a cool 40x60” Ilfabrom enlargement I made using a Saltzman 8x10 enlarger, from the single test negative I shot with this camera, taken looking out a back window at H-Y Photo Service at 16 E52nd Street NYC in 1986. The quality of that print (not included) was excellent so this lens should please. The camera has been stored carefully, climate controlled, ever since.]


This beautifully designed camera should be a fun purchase for most anyone joining the new wave of analog photographers stimulating interest in larger formats.


Any questions, let me know.


Good luck and all hail!
