Zeiss Icon Nettar
I have just put a roll of Fomapan 200 through my Zeiss Icon Nettar, developed it in D76 1+1 and I really like the results. I have had this camera for about 15 years having paid £5 on Romford Market for it and whilst I have put the odd film through it I've never really done that much with the negs.
I can't work out how to insert an image into this post so if you are interested take a look at http://warboyssnapper.blogspot.comand let me know what you think. Interested to know of other similar users of these little folders. Andrew B

I use a couple of folders regularly, I have a zeiss ikon ikonta, an ensignand a balda, all 120, and I love them, and the results, in fact I was at a local heritage site today using my balda,and the negatives are quite lovely, even hand held at 1/10 is easy with these cameras,no clunking mirror,and I amnow looking forward to printig some of them,from past experiance they will print well,Richard

I use both 6x6 and 645 folders - currently Certo, Zeiss, and Agfa, with triplets or Tessar type lenses. Most of the time I use Neopan 400 in DDX ...
Certo Dolly Super-Sport (1938) Meyer Trioplan F./2.9 They are hard to beat for userfriendly controls and fun. That's a fine shot you got with yours, Andrew.

I use a Franka Solida II, which I was given by a guy who was about to chuck it out. Needed a little TCL, but i's my main travel MF camera now! I love the quietness and simplicity of it, and it produces brilliant negatives. I've even maneged to get a couple of push-on filters for it.

I was given an Ensign Selfix 16/20 Model 1 with the 75mm f4.5 Ensar lens and my first 'Good' camera in about 1953 was the model ll with 75mm f3.5 Ross Xpres lens but I think I got a bad one as often the sharpness was very poor-- I took it to Germany when I was in the Army (R.A.M.C) and took some shots in Berlin and the model 1 I was given with the Ensar lens is sharper than the Xpres -- maybe if you would like to see the Berlin photos I can put them on here? I'm sure they are still 'lurking'in this machine somewhere-- they have been on ephotozine.com and Flickr.
PS ANDREW : I have NEVER seen cameras in ROMFORD Market !
