Attention!! The camera has all the signs of full or partial operability, but the functional description is presented to potential buyers for information about the performance of the mechanisms and optics, but I am not a manufacturer’s guarantor and do not provide a guarantee for this equipment. I am just a collector and a passionate lover of vintage cameras, and as a doctor I simply describe the patient’s diagnosis, but I leave the right of treatment to the future buyer depending on whether he will take photographs with it or will simply place it in his collection on a shelf for the sake of beauty and atmosphere. To avoid claims: the item presented in the lot is sold as a museum or collection exhibit, without a guarantee of full functionality or use for its intended purpose, since it has not been tested on film, its final photographs have not been taken, the warranty period provided by the manufacturer has expired more than 60 -80 years ago!! By placing a bid or purchasing an item at a fixed price, you confirm that you have no claims regarding the above!!



The last photograph presented in the lot (on the right is a description of the camera, series and its features) is a photocopy from the catalogue, the screenshot is presented as a guide for identifying the model and is not part of the lot. .
