The Super Isolette is a folding camera for 6×6 cm pictures on 120 film made by Agfa from 1954-60.[1] "Super" refers to the addition of a coupled rangefinder; the Isolette III has an uncoupled rangefinder, and other Isolettes are viewfinder cameras.) The four-element f/3.5 Solinar was also the highest-grade lens offered among Agfa's folders. These features make the Super Isolette a sought-after camera even today.

The same camera was offered for sale by Ansco in the USA as the Super Speedex.
