Korelle (3x4)
The Kochmann Korelle 3x4 camera was a little folder camera for 3x4cm exposure format. Nowadays it reminds us of modern compact cameras despite of it's heavyweight cute metal body which is covered with leather or leatherette. As viewfinder the camera has two frames which unfold into viewtrough position by pressing the camera's unfolding button.
