Description: Vintage Agfa Isolette II Prontor-S Apotar 1:4.5 / 85mm lens #742780 DESCRIPTION: This vintage Agfa Isolette II is a folding medium format camera. It was manufactured by Agfa in Germany in the 1950s. It is the second model of the Isolette series. It was produced in different versions. So it came with different lenses and shutters. One of these models came with an “Agfa Apotar 1:4.5 / 85 mm”. The lens has a focal length of 85 mm and the largest aperture of the lens is f/4.5. There is no autofocus function on any of the models. The focus is adjusted manually. The distance has to be either estimated or determined with an external meter. The closest focusing distance of the lens is 100 cm. Exposure is also not metered by the medium format camera. Aperture and shutter speed are set manually. Cameras with the Pronto-S shutter have eight settings (1/300 s, 1/100 s, 1/50 s, 1/25 s, 1/10 s, 1/5 s, 1/2 and 1 s). All models come with a Bulb mode. In this mode, the shutter can be opened for a variable time. Here it you can connect a cable release and mount the camera on a tripod. Through a cable, a flash can also be used with the camera. Medium format films are exposed in the Agfa Isolette II. Fortunately, there are still some manufacturers of medium format films. A color film for the medium format camera would be the Lomography Color Negative 400 120*. A possible film for black and white images is the Kodak TRI-X 400*. Other film material is also available from Rollei, Ilford and Fujifilm. The Agfa Isolette II takes pictures in 6×6 format. A roll of 120 film holds twelve square images. The film is manually wound to the next photo. A beautiful piece of photographic nostalgia! You will receive this actual vintage camera as depicted.
