What it is
{"overview":"The Zeiss Ikon Nixe 551\/6 is a folding plate and rollfilm camera from the early Zeiss Ikon era, produced in Germany following the 1926 merger that formed the company. With no recent comparables, what a Nixe 551\/6 is worth today depends heavily on completeness, bellows condition and shutter function, and any current price guidance should be treated as indicative only until further saleroom results emerge.","buying_guide":"On any folding camera of this vintage, inspect the bellows for pinholes, check that the shutter fires at all marked speeds, and confirm the lens is free of haze, fungus and separation.
