I'd like to know, whether any of you experienced guys/girls know about the awesome NORKA camera?
I have trouble finding anything serious about it on the net.
I know, however that this camera type(s) were exported to USA and other places about WWII....

it is made by a Dane. Hansen is the name (and as common as Smith in the states).
NO(rdic)KA(mera factory).

there are some different types of this.
but the most "famous" are the types, where you can make a lot of images on a single plate.. in different sizes on the same plate..
take a 30x40 plate and you can get about 50 small images on it.or one - or...

Do any of you have one? or know about one..
I'd like to know...

Sometimes you come across something nobody seems to know anything about.

Now, if you had asked about Gandolfi cameras :wink:
