What it is
{"overview":"The Ihagee Night-reflex (Nachtreflex) is a pre-war German plate-format reflex camera built by Ihagee of Dresden, designed for low-light work with a high-speed lens. Condition, completeness of the original lens, and provenance drive value, and a single strong sale can reset expectations for what the next example sells for.","buying_guide":"Inspect the bellows for pinholes, the shutter for accurate slow speeds, and the ground-glass screen for cracks, as parts and service support for Ihagee plate reflexes is effectively limited to specialist restorers.

Questions
Why does the price vary so much?
With so few examples appearing publicly, each sale sets its own benchmark, and originality of the lens, working shutter, and intact bellows are the main factors that move the price.
