Dr. Hesekiel’s Original Spiegel-Reflex-Camera, c. 1894

Item Details

Description

Dr. Hesekiel’s Original Spiegel-Reflex-Camera, c. 1894
Dr. Adolf Hesekiel, Berlin. Deluxe tropical reflex camera No. 1087, version with label D.R.G.M. 33146 resp. 64466, 12 x 16.5 cm (landscape format) plates, tropical wood body, burgundy bellows, focal plane shutter, loosely-attached 9/150 mm wide-angle lens, added ground glass screen (cracked) and focusing screen back, shutter cloth dry, mirror engages only occasionally. - In addition: Vidil rollfilm cassette for a presumably 9 x 12 cm Hesekiel reflex camera, with label "Dr. Adolf Hesekiel & Co., Berlin, Lützowstr. 2". - Note: The shutter cloth is attached to the mirror and the shutter rewound by moving it. For a technical understanding of this unfamiliar shutter transport mechanism, see "Photographische Mitteilungen 1894", pp. 378-379 and p. 381: "Set up in such a way that you can easily and immediately see on the outside of the camera whether the focal plane shutter ... is opened far enough." (This is a thread protruding from the front of the camera, which disappears when it is wound up.) "The shutter is a focal plane shutter in front of the plate, without an adjustable slit." - Extremely rare early mirror reflex camera in externally good condition. - Literature: Michel Auer, "Cameras gestern und heute", pp. 176-178. - Abring, volume 1, p. 40.

Dr. Hesekiel's Original Spiegel-Reflex-Camera, um 1894
Dr. Adolf Hesekiel, Berlin. Tropenkamera Nr. 1087 Version mit Etikett D.R.G.M. 33146 resp. 64466, Luxusmodell einer Reflexkamera für Platten im Format 12 x 16,5 cm (Querformat), Edelholzgehäuse, Schlitzverschlußtuch trocken, weinroter Balgen, mit lose ergänztem Weitwinkel-Aplanat 9/150 mm, ergänzte Mattscheibe mit Sprung, Spiegel rastet nur gelegentlich ein, mit Mattscheiben-Rückteil. - Zum technischen Verständnis eines ungewohnten Schlitz-Transportmechanismus (Verschlußtuch ist am Spiegel befestigt, mit Bewegen des Spiegels wird der Verschluß aufgezogen) siehe "Photographische Mitteilungen 1894", S. 378-379 und S. 381, Zitate: "So eingerichtet, das (sic!) man am Äusseren der Camera leicht und sofort erkennen kann, ob der Schlitzverschluss … weit genug aufgezogen ist." (Dies ist ein an der SLR vorne herausragender Faden, der bei Aufzug verschwindet.) "Der Verschluß ist ein Schlitzverschluß vor der Platte, ohne verstellbarem Schlitz." - Extrem seltene frühe "Spiegel-Reflex-Camera" in äußerlich gutem Zustand. - Literatur: Michel Auer, "Kameras gestern und heute", S. 176-178. - Abring, Band 1, S. 40. - Attraktives Sammlungs- und Ausstellungsstück. - Dabei: Vidil-Rollfilmkassette vermutlich für eine für eine Hesekiel-Reflex 9 x 12 cm, D.R.G.M. mit Etikett "Dr. Adolf Hesekiel & Co., Berlin, Lützowstr 2".
