Crewe Toll TL at front of the building. - Update January 2022 this appliance will shortly be replaced by a Volvo / Maguirus / Emergency one TL.
With good shots this year of 6, 12, 16, 17 and 18 I did particularly well with the rarer Renaults. Sadly no 15, 20 or 30 though.
My favorite SLR from the late 60's. Big, robust, well built and finished. I love the gothic "Y" on the prism housing. TTL with LED -> and <- symbols indicating over- and under-exposure in the viewfinder, along the lines of the Electro 35 RF series. I have mounted the Pentacon which has much closer focus capabilities than the native Yashinon, although a bit slower (1.8 vs 1.7). I really love the results from this lens.
Another Saturday in France, another 12. This one clearly in much, much better condition. Difficult to tell if owned by an enthusiast or just someone's regular transport.
Vintage Pentacon Six TL medium format camera with the standard prime lens Carl Zeiss Jena Biometar f/2.8 80mm mounted on. Focus stack of 25 pictures.
Strobist: One Yongnuo 560III strobe in a Firefly II softbox camera left. Another Yongnuo 560III camera right through a white umbrella. A piece of styrofoam on each side of the Pentacon Six. The strobes were triggered by a Yongnuo RF603II remote trigger.
2018 dazugekommen.
Zu Pentacon six Seriennummern gibt es nichts gesichertes, nur eine Vermutung.
Demzufolge könnte sie von 1976 sein.
Pro-black model of this super popular early 1970s SLR.
This is a fully working model (brassing and all) that is a joy to use and hold.

I got so many good headshots, and shots in general, of T this day! It was hard to choose just a few to put up.
This one has to be my favourite, however!

There are large variety of Carl Zeiss Jena and Schneider lenses for the Pentacon six. Also, a large variety of viewing screens, from simple matte to grids or fresnel lens microprism screens, are available. The waist-level finder can be replaced by non-metered or metered prism finders. The metered prisms were introduced in 1968; from this point onwards, the camera was called Pentacon six TL. Nothing had changed in the camera itself; the only thing new was the availability of a metered prism allowing TTL metering.
Praktisix is the predecessor of the Pentacon Six of the same bayonet mount. Arsenal Kiev 60 is also with Pentacon six mount.
But there is no relationship between the Praktisix/Pentacon Six and the Kiev6C/60. They share a common lens mount and film size but they are in no way the same and the Kiev is not the same mechanically.
Six major models were produced. The Praktisix 1957, Praktisix II 1964, Praktisix IIA 1966 Pentacon six 1966, Pentacon Six TL (early version) 1968, and Pentacon Six TL (late version).
These cameras are a series of improvements from the first Praktisix. But, other than the name changes there are minor changes from model to model, and the bodies are the same in general appearance.
The most common problems with all of these cameras:
1. Never allow the film advance lever to snap back after winding the film. This has been the cause of breaking more of these cameras than every other problem combined.
2. Never release the self-timer when the camera is not cocked, again a common way to break the camera.
The original manufacturer of these cameras was Kamera Werkstätten in 1959 they became V E B Kamera and KinoWerke Dresden,in 1964 they became VEB Pentacon and finally in 1970 Kombinat VEB Pentacon.
VEB (Volkseigner Betrieb) roughly translates as "People owned Industry". Initially the cameras and accessories had a stylized "KW in a diamond" logo and later the "Pentacon tower" logo.
