Well, pulled the trigger on a Zeiss Ikon 524/2 Mess Ikonta 6X9 from Certo6 yesterday. Supposed to be shipping today. Has the f 3.5 105 coated Tessar lens in a Tempor shutter. Sounds like a pretty sweet camera. Not top of the line shutter, but from what I've read it's dependable and easily serviceable.
Looking forward to getting this and trying it out. I know it's virtually impossible to get 6X9 prints made, most places seem to crop them down to 5X7. I understand that a couple places will print a 6X9 from a digital file that you send them, but they don't do the processing. If you know of a mail-order lab that does print them, let me know.
This will be my first folder. If I like it, I plan to maybe get an Agfa Isolette III for a backpacking camera. We'll see.
