Contessa-Nettel's model of 1926 with Tessar |
The Cocarette was a folding camera for rollfilm. It was one of the first new products of the German camera maker Contessa-Nettel after the merger that led to the foundation of that company in 1919. The Cocarette camera series was continued after Contessa-Nettel itself was merged into the Zeiss-Ikon group. Like many other folding camera types of the 1920s it was available in a variety of configurations. It was made for focusing by shifting the lens assembly forward or backward. Advanced versions were made which allowed vertical lens movements. The cameras had only a reflecting type finder. Contessa-Nettel tried to simplify film loading with an insert that slides into the camera.
