The Ikoflex II (852/16) is a TLR camera that was made by Zeiss Ikon from 1938 till 1951[1].
Confusingly, it was first named Ikoflex III but this changed to Ikoflex II in 1939 when the Ikoflex III (853/16) was introduced.
It creates 6x6cm negatives (or slides) on 120 film.
The lensboard now has a shroud. Diaphragm and Shutterspeed can be seen in 2 small windows on the top of this shroud.
It is generally believed[2] that the production of the Ikoflex II ended during WW2[3]. However, in a 1951 Zeiss Ikon brochure the Ikoflex II (852/16) is presented again though it is clearly a very different camera[1].
