Sommer Night Camera
4.5x6cm, almost unknown, very interesting camera for available light photography, focal plane shutter, folding Galilean finder, original ground glass adapter, very fast Meyer Plasmat 1.5/9cm no.463812 (an uncommon six-element symmetrical double Gauss design) in helicoid focusing mount, clean lenses, cap. The camera is very similar to the Ermanox, but with a lens twice as fast. The camera was produced by Bernhard Sommer, Dresden and to our knowledge never offered in auction before.
