Chronology of cameras Ica 

Ica AG (International Camera Aktien Gesellschaft) was established in 1909 through the merger of the companies Huttig, Krugener, Wuensche, and Carl Zeiss Palmos, with Zulauf joining in 1911.

Several years were required to finalize this merger, during which production relied on the expertise of each of the founding companies. From this period, you can find some original models, but also often copies from one or another of the previous brands bearing the name Ica, sometimes even not listed in an Ica catalog and without a specific model code.

It was from 1912 that the situation stabilized, and the various camera models began to follow a certain coherence until 1926, when Ica ceased to exist. It was absorbed, along with others, into Zeiss Ikon.

Ica offered a wide range of non-stereo view cameras, which can be classified as follows:

Cameras with a single-extension vertical bellows: Niklas, Alpha, Lola, Teddy, Corrida, Icar (Ikarus), Sirene, Volta, Victrix, and two models with automatically extending bellows upon opening: Atom and Cupido.
Cameras with double-extension vertical bellows: Delta, Hekla, Reicka, Orix, Trix, Minimal, Toska, Trona, Maximar, Nelson, and Ideal.
Cameras with horizontal bellows, exclusively in the 13 x 18 format: Ingo, Jul, and Triplex; the last two have triple extensions.
Square format cameras: Favorit, Tropica, Juwell, and Universal Palmos.
Travel cameras: Amateur, Elegant, Kosmopolit, Hochtourist, and Perfekt. Also, there are studio cameras, with the largest format being 80 x 100 cm.

Finally, there are less common early Ica cameras, such as Minimum Ideal, Superba-Reicka, Reicka-Quer, and Superba-Ideal. Additionally, there are cameras from that same period that lack identification numbers, can be found in multiple categories, and are not listed in catalogs.
