Enjoyed this video. Looks like a lovely little 120 film folding camera. Compared to the massive heavy medium formats like Mamiya, Hasselblad, Bronica etc, this is a breath of fresh air for amateur enthusiasts.
Just about to start using my Grandfathers "66" I was just wondering do you have to set the shutter before or after winding the film on to a new frame ? Thanks for the overview.
The little metal tab on the Model III can be pressed in to override the double exposure prevention if you want to do double exposures. Great little camera. Nice overview of both.
Yesterday I found and bought a model 2 in a charity shop for £10 UK/$12 US, complete with the fake leather pouch. It's not a good as yours but it should clean up nicely but more importantly it works. Now to get a few 120 rolls of film and try it out.
That was basically a "Tourist" made in France. None of these old cameras are worth what I'd call real money - it also varies depending on condition. I would do a search on eBay to see what they are going for.

Hey I have a 4.5 middle 36.
Is this. Thing worth any money?

It has a cold shoe where you could put a separate rangefinder in.
No more guessing focus.
