The Phoenix (or Phönix) is a folding plate camera made by Willhelm Kenngott in Stuttgart in about 1924. It is a tropical model; that is, with the wood, leather and metals chosen to withstand tropical climate.
McKeown states that it was available in 6×9cm, 9×12cm (the most common) and 9×14cm sizes.[1]
