Many thanks, Vlad!

OK. If I understand correctly, I will have to put that accessory on a late 1g rather on a 1b...🤔
That puts another question. Why that device made after 1956? It can be put only on Fed 1/Zorki 1 cameras (both discontinued in 1955/56) and only on a collapsible 3,5/50mm...
I am perplax...

Amitiés. Jacques.
PS: the Princelle quotes the +1 version only (p 273).

Happy to get a camera from Guido's collection, as a souvenir. He was a lover of fakes, like me...

Jacques,

thank you very much. I was also really surprised by the camera’s modular design and high-quality build. I suppose that’s why so few were ever made. It wasn’t possible to manufacture it at a profit under the Soviet system.
Of course, I kept the bolt; maybe I'll take the other Droug apart again just enough to see if it belongs there or not :-)

Hello,

I can add to the trade:
- a Fed-KMZ (probably not findable, except as a fake!)
- a very early Fed 1a (my collection starts with the s/n 1453),
- a TSVVS (1949 only) in a very good condition.

The Contax S is original, without selftimer, with speeds limited by the factory to the 1/500th (because of problems of regulation), and particularly its speed button with this special shape.
The lens is in perfect optical condition, just a very light wobble in the mount. I can provide photos made with it (on a Sony).

Hi Adrian,

very sad and this is probably a post a lot of us were dreading to see in this forum, but I appreciate you posting it here as I'm sure Guido's cameras would find a good and warm home here among the forum members who've known him for many many years.

thank you,

And by the way, the topic is not more right now. If it is a camera below serial number approx. 50000 it was made in 1937 and is still 89 years old now :D
