It's an East German camera made in Dresden, the original company was based in Dresden and founded in 1902, in 1972 they became state controlled in 1972 as VEB Certo,and finally became part of VEB Pentacon in 1980.

Certo cameras were better known here before WWII, they couldn't have competed with the slightly better made Halina's coming into the UK from Hong Kong.
