    German? Markings Identification

    I know what D.R.G.M. means, but can anyone tell me what D.B.G.M.a means? It is on a very early (rollfilm) greatly modified Polaroid camera with a Staeble 122mm f4.5 lens in a Prontor shutter. I think the modification is German, mostly because that is where the camera came from.

    German? Markings Identification

    Ernest,

    DBGM (Deutsches Bundes Gebrauchsmuster) means the same as DRGM, but is post WW-II. The appendix "a" means that it has been applied for but not yet granted.

    Thank you so much, Thilo. It appears that I am seriously out of date.
