Chronology of cameras Foth
Apart from quite common foldings, Foth has also produced interesting models, such as the Derby and the Foth Flex.
Thus, the twin-lens reflex has a curtain type shutter cocked manually by rotation of a graduated knob. This feature allowed for shutter speeds uncommon for the time. The film winding is performed separately by a wheel and the shutter release is provided by a small lever on the right side.
The shooting and viewfinder lens are identical. The rotation of the shooting one adjusts the aperture.
Both lens are integrally mounted on a plate that moves back and forth by turning the knob on the left side of the body.
