Chronology of cameras Sida
The invention of the Sida camera and its derivatives is commonly attributed to Fritz Kaftanski, who is more well-known for his Fex cameras. However, to be precise, the credit belongs to both Karl Gumpel and Fritz Kaftanski, as evidenced by the patents filed for the precursor of this camera.
The Sida camera was manufactured in Berlin during the 1930s. It had several variations that differed in terms of materials, technical operation, and more. The film used was specific, producing negatives of 24 x 24 mm. The lens was an 8/35 mm.
Years later, after the war, a French version of the camera would emerge, called the Sidax, made from bakelite. Equivalent models were manufactured under license in other parts of the world, including Britain and Italy.
