Chronology of cameras Agfa
The Isolette cameras are horizontal folding cameras that use 120 film. They were initially available in two formats, 6 x 6 and 4.5 x 6, but after the war, only 6 x 6 format was offered.
The first model was simply called the Isolette. It was later briefly renamed the Isorette. This was the only model available from 1938 until the war. In the 1950s, the range expanded.
The Isolette I is a simple camera that replaced the initial Isolette model. The Isolette II is similar, but with a better quality shutter. The Isolette III has a non-coupled rangefinder. The Isolette V is extremely basic, even more so than the pre-war models. As these were the first cameras manufactured after the war, it can be assumed that Agfa simply wanted to sell a camera that was easy to manufacture and could be sold at a lower price in a Germany still in ruins. The Isolette L has a non-coupled light meter. The Super Isolette has a coupled rangefinder.
The Agfa B2 Commander distributed by Ansco is an Isolette designed for the American market.
