Zeiss Ikon Nettar

[Gaz81]

I have recently purchased a 'faulty' (meaning bugger all wrong with it) Zeiss Ikon Nettar 6x6 folder off ebay for a massive £8.60.

Such a beautifully engineer bit of kit, looks really good after a good clean.

Question is, what are my options filter wise?

It would be really good if there was a way of fitting a polarising filter!

Any thoughts how i can do this?

Cheers,

Gary

Sorry ... not really as I don't know the camera ... :suspect: ... but it would be good to see a pic of your new purchase ... :shrug:



:D

Hopefully I'll have time to get some pics up tomorrow afternoon.

Already ordered some Velvia from 7day shop!

Bidding in light meters and rangfinders on ebay as well.

Really like the feel of the older kit, built to last that stuff!

I can't think of a way to mount one to the camera, but you've got the option of holding it in front of the lens or getting one of those bendy things with a croc clip on each end to hold it for you.

hmmm...

Maybe a modified lens hood might do the trick!

There were a few versions of this camera Rog - I think this is one of the later ones.

nearly,

it has the F4.5 75mm Novar Ansatigment Pronto lens.

Nice! That will produce some great images. :thumbs:

I hope so, really looking forward to using it.

Just need the light meter and ranger finder now (and film of course)

You don't need a light meter or a range finder m8, just get shooting, rule of thumb works well enough for these old cameras.

My Fuji Verlvia 50 from 7dayshop and light meter (proper Zeiess one!) have arrived!

Due to my dad being in hospital (getting much better now) i havnt had time to take a pic of the new toys, will put some up tomorrow.
