Chronology of cameras Zeiss Ikon 

The horizontal 6 x 6 cm Nettar cameras can be considered as the less advanced counterparts of the Ikonta 6 x 6 cameras, which benefit from better lenses and shutters. Another noticeable difference between horizontal Nettar and Ikonta cameras is the presence of a third component in the struts of the Ikonta cameras. This third component provides greater rigidity to the bellows and, consequently, to the camera's folding structure.

Several generations of horizontal 6 x 6 cm Nettar cameras have been produced.

515/16, from 1938 to 1945, with production resuming from 1949 to 1951 without significant technical changes. From 1943 to 1945, the rare 516/16 model was introduced, featuring double-exposure prevention. The 517/16, manufactured from 1951 to 1957, incorporates a hood with the viewfinder.
Each of these models can be compared to a corresponding Ikonta model. The 515/16 corresponds to the 520/16, while the 516/16 corresponds to the 521/16 due to its double-exposure prevention feature. It's worth noting that this improvement appeared in 1938 on the Ikonta but only around 1943 on the Nettar. Finally, the 517/16 corresponds to the 523/16 Ikonta model.

The jungle of the models Zeiss Ikon is quite dense. It seems that the logic allotted commonly to the brand for its denominations is sometimes not so logical that.
We have on the site a Nettar (517/16), whose the hood is angular and who seems to have been manufactured as from 1953.
That of this page is, it seems, a Nettar II (517/16) recognizable with its hood with the curved lines. It seems that he was manufactured of 1951 to 1953. Thus Nettar II would be former than the Nettar.
During the same time, there exists another full model, the Nettar Signal, which is equipped with a system of prevention of the double exposures.

It should be noted that on this specimen, the distances are indicated in feet.
