The '''Nettel''' is a strut-folding plate camera with a focal-plane shutter, made by [[Nettel|Nettel Camerawerk]]; the camera was introduced in 1903, while the company was still called '''Süddeutsches Camerawerk Körner und Mayer'''.<ref name=McK>{{McKeown12}} p714.</ref> It is very similar to the later [[Deckrullo-Nettel|''Deckrullo''-Nettel]] strut-folders, with the same strut system, allowing focusing by adjustable strut extension, with a built-in focus scale, in addition to ground-glass focusing, horizontal and vertical movements of the lens board, and a frame finder. It has, however, a more primitive focal-plane shutter than the Deckrullo-Nettel, that is not self-capping, so that care must be taken not to tension the shutter with the dark slide removed.

Two stereo models were made. Like the mono cameras, these differ from the stereo ''Deckrullo''-Nettel models in the shutter.

The camera was made in many plate sizes (McKeown lists the ''Deckrullo''-Nettel in all the same sizes except for 4x5 inch<ref name=McK></ref>):
