Between 1932 and 1938 Balda introduced four different camera's with the name Frontbox. This second version from 1935 was only a minor upgrade from the original model. The box camera was now fitted with two brilliant finders and a new look with a larger name plate and a shiny metal rim around the front.

Specifications

  • Metal box covered with Leatherette
  • “Balda” embossed on both sides of the camera
  • Two 3/8 inch 16 UNC threaded tripod sockets
  • T and B shutter set by pulling the smaller upper lever
  • Two apertures set by pulling the larger bottom lever
  • Cable release beneath the shutter release
  • Simple F:11 meniscus lens
