Chronology of cameras Lippische
Lippische, whose full name is Lippische Kamerafabrik Richter und Fischer GmbH, is often abbreviated as Lipca. The company was established in Bartrup, located in the western part of Germany, in 1947. It was founded by Fritz and Charlotte Richter and Karl Fischer, who had recently left the Soviet-occupied sector.
During the 1950s, Lippische was a highly active manufacturer of twin-lens reflex (TLR) cameras, although they produced only a few different models. These cameras were sold under the names Flexo, Rollop, and Flexora. Some of their production was also marketed under distributor brands, including the Richard brand.
Certain models were exported in significant quantities to the United States. The most well-known among these is likely the Rollop, which can occasionally be found in France.
The Lippische Flexora is the successor to the Flexo, which was released in the late 1940s. The changes between the Flexo and the Flexora appear to be minimal, with the only noticeable difference being the presence of strap attachments (although this may require confirmation).
The Flexora I, II, or III can primarily be distinguished by their lens and shutter combinations:
Lens | Shutter | |
Flexora I | Ennar 4,5/7,5 cm | Vario |
Flexora II | Ennar 3,5/7,5 cm | Prontor S |
Flexora II | Ennagon 3,5/7,5 cm | Prontor S |
