The Super Ikonta C was a high-end medium format, coupled rangefinder camera. It was produced in Germany from 1933 to 1955 by Zeiss-Ikon. It uses 120 roll film to produce 6x9 format negatives. (It can also produce smaller 6x4.5 negatives if you use an accessory reduction mask.) It's a wonderful design and it’s well known for its excellent performance. A properly serviced and adjusted Super Ikonta is a joy to use and they've kept photographers all around the world smiling for over 80 years. Get one, and you'll have something that'll last a lifetime and keep you smiling the whole while.
Here are some sample photos taken with a 1935 6x9 Super Ikonta C which we had the pleasure of acquiring, servicing, and helping it find a new home. The owner hails from the Netherlands and he was kind enough to share his photos with us. Copyright 2021 Peter de Groot. All rights reserved.
