By removing the insert in the back of the camera plate holders can be fitted in its place. The lens, an Ihagee anastigmat F.3.5. 70mm f.1. is mounted in a special helical focusing mount with 2 distance scales. Th first is for roll-film only, the second is for plates, as the plate in the dark-slide lies in a different focal plane. The shutter is pronto ever-set type with speeds 1/25 to 1/100 sec. The two windows in the back cover will allow 16 pictures to be taken on rollfilm with the help of a special mask.
