Hello! Longtime lurker of past versions of this forum - I would like to trade my Kenngott tropical hand camera for a 4x5 field camera setup (I'm interested in making macro photos of small CRT screens but don't want a monorail setup, if that's of any use..).

I believe mine is the 6.5x9 cm version (I don't have any film/plate holders..) - lens has some fungus but I have not attempted any dissasembly/remedy/cleaning - shutter fires but no extensive testing done - photos attached + please feel free to message with questions (I also have a 20+ year history on eBay I could direct you to if my new-status on this forum worries you).

Thanks!

Info from a Phottrio user - camera is likely from 1924/1925 based on the serial number of the Compur shutter, and the 105mm lens indicates it is a 6.5x9cm model.

Bump - just listed this for sale on eBay (added a couple extra photos) but would prefer to deal with someone here - if you don't have a trade but would want to make a cash offer please feel free to send me a message.
