What it is
{"overview":"The Contessa-Nettel Deckrullo Nettel Telephoto is a folding plate camera produced in Germany in the early 20th century, before Contessa-Nettel merged into Zeiss Ikon in 1926. Buyers asking what a Deckrullo Nettel Telephoto is worth today should treat that figure as a historical reference point rather than a guide to what the camera now sells for, and watch live auction listings for fresh comparables.","buying_guide":"As with other focal-plane Deckrullo models, the cloth shutter curtain is the main wear point — check for pinholes, light leaks at the edges, and consistent travel across the frame.

Questions
What should I check before buying one?
Focus on the focal-plane shutter curtain for light leaks, the bellows and leather for condition, and confirm that plate holders and ground glass are included, as replacements are difficult to source.
