Neue Görlitzer Camera-Werke Robert Reinsch & Wolf Nachfolger ('Robert Reinsch and successors of Wolf') was a camera-maker in Germany, founded in 1920 by Robert Reinsch[1], former leading craftsman at Herbst & Firl. It took over a factory in Görlitz where Herbst & Firl had produced Ernemann's Globus cameras.

The company made wooden-bodied view cameras similar to the Globus ones, and big studio cameras for large format photography, mainly badged with its Globus-Stella and Globica labels. It also made tripods, forensic cameras and repro cameras. In 1958 the company became part of Pentacon group, and continued making the professional studio camera Globica. Production ended in 1991.
