This is a Zeiss-Ikon Nettar 515 which is a medium format folding camera which takes sixteen 6cm x 4.5cm images on 120 roll film. This was the third model in the long-lived Nettar line and first went on sale in 1937. The Nettar line of cameras shared many design similarities with the higher spec Ikonta line, and was aimed at the amateur market. Despite its status as a lesser camera to the Ikonta line, it was a very well built camera that shared many body parts including the hinges and gears with its big brother. The lenses and shutters in the Nettar line were often lower spec without the wide range of shutter speeds, yet the cameras were often capable of good to excellent shots. The entire Nettar line was produced through the late 1950s and had models that shot in a variety of aspect ratios such as 6cm x 6cm and 6cm x 9cm.
