The '''Belfoca''' was a popular [[folding]] camera for type [[120 film|No. 120 rollfilm]], made by [[Belca]]. Made for 6x9cm images, It could be used with a mask for 6x6cm exposures. It had features that facilitated film load, exposure counting and closing the camera. The frame finder, the optional accessory brilliant finder and the [[shutter release]] button on top were further features to make this camera user-friendly. It was so popular that [[Feinmess]] in Freital started making camera lenses because other makers like [[Ludwig]] and [[Meyer]] had difficulties in supplying enough lenses. The camera was available with fast f4.5 lens or normal f6.3 lens. Shutter equipment was a multi-speed ''Tempor'' or [[Prontor]] shutter or a three-speed ''Binor'' or ''Junior'' shutter. | The '''Belfoca''' was a popular [[folding]] camera for type [[120 film|No. 120 rollfilm]], made by [[Belca]].
