The 524/16 is a folding camera in the Ikonta line, produced by the German company Zeiss Ikon.
It makes 12 size 6x6 cm images on 120 type rollfilm and comes equipped with a variety of lenses and shutters.

By adding an uncoupled rangefinder Zeiss Ikon closed the gap between the viewfinder equiped Ikontas and the coupled rangefinder equiped Super-Ikontas.
