Welta Solida
The Welta Solida is a 6×9 folding camera released in 1933. It has a coupled rangefinder, separate from the viewfinder, in a long rectangular black box. It also has a brilliant finder. The lens is unit focused, driven by a small knob at one side of the folding bed, a system continued in the later Weltur series. The winding is by key, and there is no double exposure prevention. The Solida is dual format, having the ability to take 4.5×6 exposures with a mask inserted in the exposure chamber and a switchable mask built in the viewfinder.
