What it is
{"overview":"The Zeiss Ikon Ikoflex I is a medium-format twin-lens reflex camera taking 6x6cm images on 120 roll film, introduced in the mid-1930s. In today's market the Coffee Can body is not a high-value Zeiss Ikon collectable, and the price a buyer pays is driven almost entirely by cosmetic condition and whether the shutter and focusing are working. Inspect the film advance and frame counter, check that the shutter fires cleanly at all marked speeds, and look at the leatherette and chrome for corrosion around the edges of the 'Coffee Can' body.

Questions
Is the Ikoflex I 'Coffee Can' a valuable collectable?
It is an affordable entry into Zeiss Ikon TLR collecting rather than a high-value piece; the price realised reflects condition more than the earlier-versus-later Coffee Can variant.
What film does the Ikoflex I use?
It takes standard 120 roll film and produces 6x6cm square negatives through its twin-lens reflex viewing system.
