My Certo Six


My Certo Six was purchased from http://www.camera-collectors.com/ for the very reasonable sum of $150. The camera was then sent to Jurgen Kreckel http://www.certo6.com/ for a full clean, lubricate and adjust (CLA) in addition to having the rangefinder rebuilt. It is in gorgeous condition. I can't really tell that it was ever used. You probably already know that the Certo Six takes 120 film and is a folding medium format camera with a coupled, parallax-corrected rangefinder, frame counter and lever winder. It focuses the entire lens assembly instead of the front element, just like a large format camera. Mine is equipped with a Prontor SVS shutter and f2.8/80mm Tessar lens.

  • Bautiful camera!
    Amazing condition!
    Very recently I got a Zeiss Ikon Nettar and an Agfa Record II.
    I wish I could have them repaired as you had yours. Jurgen Kreckel seems to be a real magician!

    Best Regads.
