The Ikoflex II (851/16) is a TLR camera that was made by Zeiss Ikon from 1936 till 1951. Confusingly, it was renamed Ikoflex 1 or Ikoflex I (850/16) in 1939, replacing the original Ikoflex I (coffee can model)[1]. It creates 6x6cm negatives (or slides) on 120 film.
The earlier Ikoflex II's have a focus lever on the left side of the body. This was replaced by a focus knob on later ones.
Specifications
- Known Lens/Shutter combinations (prewar):
851/16 Ik : Novar 4.5/7.5 cm lens in a Klio shutter
851/16 Ik : Triotar 3.5/7.5 cm lens in a Compur shutter
851/16 Lcr : Triotar 3.5/7.5 cm lens in a Compur-Rapid shutter
850/16 Fc (Ikoflex I) : Novar 4.5/7.5 cm lens in a Compur shutter - Known Lens/Shutter combinations (postwar):
850/16 Fps (Ikoflex I) : Novar 3.5/7.5 cm lens in a Prontor-S shutter
850/16 Lps (Ikoflex I) : Tessar 3.5/7.5 cm lens in a Prontor-S shutter - Taking lens: Carl Zeiss Jena, or Zeiss-Opton T (coated), Tessar, or Trioplan, 75mm, f/3.5. (10 aperture blades).
- Viewing lens: Teronar-Anigstigmat f/3.5
- Focusing range: 3 feet 6 inches to infinity.
- Shutter: Zeiss Ikon Compur-Rapid, T/B/1s - 1/500s or Prontor 1-1/300s.
- Double-exposure prevention, because the film-advance knob must be wound on before firing. If the film counter has reached past 12, the shutter will also not fire.
