I have two 6.5x11cm cameras and the other has coupled rangefinder, plus this Inos II camera is really good in winter time (no the rainy winter as I'm now).

It took me a while to have the full set for 70mm film and I still have some Special Edition of Ilford HP5+
Now the buyer will get a ready to go pack.

Camera, spools, backpaper, kodak 116 film unopened, daylight tank (Yankee Clipper) and 10 meters of Tri-X (rated 32-50)

The lens, completely clean expect for small nicks (really tiny) in the rear lens, I was worried when I got the camera till I did the first shots.
The camera has been fixed a common error for this Inos II of this size, a light leak caused by the first ruby window, I put a second ruby red cover and I used dark light trap from a donor, last roll came clean.

200 euro shipped and paypaled in EU, 240 euro same for USA.

Thank you for looking,
Alex

What a cool camera!!!

Inos ii is a fine camera even to use with 120 film using easily available cheap adapters or cut x-ray film. I bought one from eBay some months ago and IMO it is hard to find one in good condition, tested and made fully ready for use at this price.

The good thing of this camera among other 616/116 cameras is the nearest focus is just 1 meter (unit focus), Super Ikonta 530/15 is 1,8 meters IIRC (front cell focus).

And the coolest thing I ever saw in a folding camera… Inos II, little Perkeo 3x4 (and probably Prominent 6x9 and Virtus) have a air entrance (next to the take up spool) to the film chamber to avoid the vacuum effect when opening the bellows.

The run of Voigtlander cameras including the Perkeo, Virtus, Inos II and Prominent are very stylish and elegant. What really does it for me are the pierced metal knobs they all share.

 

[Alex Varas]

I agree with that, I plan to keep my Inos II 6x9.
If this 116 version is not sold I should make the conversion to 6x11 with 120 film.

Hi Alex,

While getting my Inos CLAd I noticed that Inos doesn't have a film pressure plate. Did you use a DIY pressure plate when you used your camera with 120 film?

 

[Alex Varas]

Hi Raghu,

I never did the conversion to 120 for this camera, both my Inos II this format or 120 haven’t pressure plate for film, it’s just the back door who does it, and it does it just fine.

 

[Raghu Kuvempunagar]

So I guess it is omission by design then. I shot a 120 roll using adapters and the negatives came out ok. But my repairs-person was puzzled that there is no pressure plate and asked me if I was going to use a DIY plate.

Sold, thank you.
