Camera industry in Berlin

The Company

C.F. Foth & Co., Foth in short. This German optical company operated in Berlin in 1926, first working from premises at Cottbusser Damm 25-26 (–1928),[1] then from Berlin-Britz Grade Straße 91-107 (1928-1932)[2] and finally from Berlin-Buchholz, PankStrasse 1-3 (1932-1940).[3] The relationship of C.F. Foth Berlin to C.F.Foth in Danzig (Gdansk) and C.F. Foth & Cie in Paris is not clear at this point in time and requires further research.

Foth is known to have produced, or distributed binoculars and other optical instruments and manufactured a range of cameras and lenses from 1926 to 1940[4]. A cute little collectible is the Foth Derby, a vest pocket strut folder with focal plane shutter taking 30×40 mm images.

Cameras

Foth manufactured a range of camera and lenses, mainly a range of 6×9 plate cameras and folders.

Plate cameras

  • Foth plate camera 6×9 (1930–32)[5]
The camera was available with standard black leatherette and, as the luxus edition, with brown leather imitating crocodile skin[6]
  • Foth Mixte for film, 6.5×9 plates and 6.5×9 film packs.
The camera was fitted with a Foth Anastigmat f/4.5 (1933–37)[7]

  • Foth Film 6×9
initially offered with a Foth Doppel Anastigmat f/6.3 (1926-27)[8] and after one year with the faster Foth Doppel Anastigmat f/4.5 (1927-34).[9] The standard camera was covered in black leatherette. A Deluxe Version covered in brown leather imitating crocodile and brown bellows also existed.[10] A very rare unit covered in green leather (with green bellows) has also been observed [11]
  • Foth Film 6.5×11
fitted first with Foth Anastigmat f/4.9 (1931-33).[12] and then, in common with the 6×9 model, with the Foth Anastigmat f/4.5 (1933-)[13]
  • Foth Special 6×9 (self-erecting folder)
fitted with meniscus lens (1935).[14]
  • Foth Spring (self-erecting folder)
fitted with Foth Anastigmat f/4.5 (1933-36).[15]
Following the success of Franke and Heidecke’s Rolleiflex, Foth produced the Foth-Flex (1933-36) fitted with a 75mm f/3.5.[16]
Like the Derby the Foth-Flex had a focal plane curtain shutter, which was an unusual arrangement for the time. The Foth-Flex II was introduced in 1937, again with a 75/3.5[17], but also with a 75/2.5.[18] The Foth-Flex II was manufactured until 1939.

Foth Derby Type 3
image by Rick Soloway (Image rights)
The Derby was a strut folding viewfinder camera for 127 film rolls, made by Foth from 1931 to about 1940. The Derby sported a cloth focal plane shutter capable of shutter speeds of 1/500th of second. It was marketed as a vest-pocket camera suitable for action photography. The first versions of the camera had a film gate size of 24 × 36mm, while all later versions used the full 30 × 40mm format the 127 film format was capable of.

Other cameras

  • Foth Tubus Kamera (1930)[19]
  • Foth Stereo


Lenses

The various folding camera models produced by taking 120 roll film or plates use the Foth Doppel Anastigmat F=105mm. None of these lenses carry serial numbers. The Foth Derby uses the Foth Anastigmat F=50mm, while the Foth-flex use Foth Anastigmat F=75mm

Foth Doppel Anastigmat F=105mm

  • f/6.3 (1926-27)
  • f/4.9 (1927-34)
  • f/4.5 (1933–37).

Foth Anastigmat F=75mm

This lens was used in the Foth-flex

  • f/2.5
  • f/3.5

Foth Anastigmat F=50mm

This lens was used in the Foth Derby.

  • f/2.5
The lens exists with and without serial numbers. Both have the same f-stops: 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.3, 9, 12.5, 18.
