Chronology of cameras Agfa
They are very classic, made either of cardboard or metal. They have a meniscus lens, usually focusless. Very simple, they have, for most of them, no settings.
The number, which does not appear on the cameras, does not seem to follow any logic.
There are other box cameras that do not fit into this list because they do not have a number.

Model No. 64 has the particular characteristic of having a triple focus. A slider, positioned next to the front attachment point of the handle, allows the optical unit to be moved internally and thus ensures distance adjustment. The plate next to the slider bears the inscriptions "Proche, portrait, éloigné", in French.
The zipper that we see slightly out at the top of the camera allows you to choose one of the three diaphragms: f/11, f/16 or f/22.
Its identification is easy, because its name is inscribed around the lens.
