Viewfinder camera Zeiss Nettar is held by Roscheider Hof Open Air Museum. Museum description: We see a Zeiss Ikon Nettar, a folding camera with an optical viewfinder in the body, which consists of cast metal with artificial leather covering. It opens to the left to extend the bellows. The lens is a Novar-Anastigmat 1:4.5/105 mm. It exposes 120 roll films in 6x9 format. The camera is in good condition. Built from 1951 to 1956, it was very popular in the 1950s. The museum record gives measurements L: 160 mm W: 50 mm H: 105 mm. These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
