The Isographe is a strut-folding stereo camera for 6x6cm stereo pairs, made by Baudry from 1928 until about 1945,[1] rather later than most stereo cameras. Notes by Sylvan Halgand at Collection Appareils state that Baudry made cameras by hand-craft methods, which meant that they vary in exact specification. Two rather different examples are shown at Collection Appareils:

  • A camera for 6x13cm plates, which has fixed-focus Berthiot 75mm f/5.7 Olor lenses. This has a metal bar below the lenses, which links the two aperture controls.
  • A camera for 620 roll film, which has focusing 75mm f/4.5 Berthiot Flor lenses. This has a similar metal bar but in this example it links them so that they focus together; it is adjusted by a rod leading to a rotating knob at the right side of the camera. Their apertures, still linked, are set by a separate sliding control.

Both examples have a guillotine shutter with speeds 1 - 1/200 second, plus 'B'. They have a large frame finder, which has two metal discs mounted on it, which serve as lens-caps when the camera and finder are folded.
