Voigtländer Perkeo I, II & IIIe
Another Voigtlander I can't leave out is the Perkeo series… Perkeo I, II, and IIIe. These are 6x6 cameras of the usual excellent build, and I think Voigtlander's BEST folders from a reliability and pocketability standpoint. Few 6x6 cameras are as svelte and as well built machines giving you that terrific big 6x6 negative and still fit in your pocket!
All three models can be found with either the f4.5/80mm Vaskar or the f3.5/80mm Color-Skopar lens. However, it is far more likely to find the Perkeo II & IIIe with the Color-Skopar. Shutters for these models ran the gamut from Pronto to Synchro-Compur, with the Prontor S slightly more common on this model. So what's the difference between a I, II, or IIIe ?
The Perkeo I indicates that you have released the shutter and taken a picture and prevents double exposure till film is wound.
The Perkeo II tells you which frame you are on… a real frame-counter, Auto film stop / double exposure prevention.
The Perkeo IIIe is the only Perkeo with a rangefinder, though UNCOUPLED, but sacrifices the space under the top cover once held by the Auto frame counter. This is a VERY RARE camera as it was only built for less than a year in 1953. Really nice camera…like the Agfa Isolette III.
