This listing is for –
                           A Classic  BALDA ” BALDIXETTE ” 6x6cm Roll Film Camera. It takes standard 120 type Roll FILM. Made in West Germany.

 

The oddest feature of the camera is the retractable lens plate, which pops out to the ready position by touching the button on top of the camera next to the film advance knob. The extending apparatus is a cylindrical and spring loaded chrome housing, and it retracts by simply pushing it back towards the camera. This “folding” action adds to the Baldixette’s portability, as it loses more than an inch in profile when retracted.

                           I am reducing my collection of camera’s, (which I have built up over many years), at the request of my wonderful wife…

 

                            
                           As I do not have the means to test the camera fully,  it is being sold as Not working.    Hence the low starting price.
                           Please check out photographs to see condition of the camera, a picture is worth a thousand words!!!
