Zeiss Ikon Stereo-Nettel Tropen 614/9 (Tropical)

{"overview":"The Zeiss Ikon Stereo-Nettel Tropen 614\/9 is a tropical-finish stereo plate camera, built with teak panels and brown leather bellows for use in hot, humid climates. Tropical-finish Zeiss Ikon stereo cameras are condition-sensitive at auction — the value of any given example today depends heavily on the state of the wood, leather and bellows, and on completeness of the original plate holders. Buyers researching what a Stereo-Nettel Tropen sells for should treat the 2003 hammer as historic context rather than a live guide to what it is worth.","buying_guide":"Inspect the teak body for cracks, shrinkage and re-varnishing, and check the brown leather bellows on both lens standards for pinholes, since stereo cameras need two light-tight bellows to be usable. Confirm both shutters fire at matching speeds and that the lens cells are clean and free of separation.
