The Voigtländer Alpin are horizontal folding bed plate cameras made from 1907 to 1928. The cameras had double or triple extension bellows. A Teletubus with 2½× magnification could be mounted inside the unfolded camera. Tourists liked the camera because it was quite compact when folded, provided a horizontal format suitable for landscapes and group photographs, and it was made of light metal. It was produced in a wide variety of models each featured a different lens or negative size.
Two main formats were offered, 9x12 and 10x15, the latter for panorama and stereo imagery.
The design of the Voigtländer Alpin influenced other camera manufacturers to create similar designs. A close copy is Rokuoh Sha's' horizontal Lily ( (リリー) offered from 1916 to 1930.
