The 532/16 is a folding camera in the Ikonta line, produced by the German company Zeiss Ikon.
It takes 11 size 6x6 cm images on 120 type rollfilm. The Super Ikonta's are equiped with coupled rangefinders.
It was generally sold under the name Super Ikonta I 6x6 cm and Super Ikonta I 21/4 x 21/4
This Super Ikonta model has an automated film transport stop and counting mechanism.
The unusual number of frames, 11 instead of the standard 12, is caused by a design change which Zeiss Ikon made to encounter the frame overlapping problems which were encountered with its predeseccor the Super Ikonta 530/16.
