What it is
The Foth Folding Rollfilm Camera, Deluxe is a folding rollfilm camera produced by the German maker Foth, a Berlin-based manufacturer active in the interwar period. As a deluxe-grade folder, it was positioned above the firm's plainer rollfilm models when new.
On any Foth folder of this era, inspect the bellows in raking light for pinholes, check that the shutter fires at all marked speeds without sticking, and confirm the lens is free of haze, fungus and separation. Service support for pre-war German folders is limited to independent specialists, so factor repair availability into what the camera is worth to you.

Questions
Is the Foth Deluxe folder a good buyer's camera?
It can be, if the bellows, shutter and lens all check out — but parts and service are scarce, so the price you pay should reflect working condition rather than cosmetic appeal alone.
