Linhof Serial Numbers

[Fabio caramelli]

Hello,
I am new to large format photography and I could buy a linhof whose serial number is 6475054.
The camera is in good conditions, I would just need to make sure about model/year.
I wonder if Bob Salomon could help.
Many thanks

Hi Bob,
I am a Camera & Optic sales consultant in a small camera store in Dunedin New Zealand, I have had a customer come to me today with an old Linhoff Technika 4x5 camera that he wants a little more info on as he is wanting to sell it.
The Body Serial number is 30546
It has a Xenar f4.5/150mm lens on the camera with matched cam
It also has 2 4x5 2 shot magazines, and a Linhoff Rolex 6x9 roll back
Any year info you can give me on this would be awesome
Many thanks
Hayden

I have recently purchased a Linhof Serial # 2113009.
I believe it is an early Super Technika V since it has the plastic lever for rise and fall of lens.
How can I purchase an anatomical handgrip with cable release that goes into Rapid Release slot?
MANY MANY THANKS!

1965/66. You can order the grip and release from a Linhof dealer.

Many thanks Bob, my customer will be over the moon to know the camera is older than he is.
Also, the Roll Back and the lenses, my customer informs me the kit is one that was put together from several different kits, so he is curious about the lenses and roll back to see what years they were produced and how much the kit varies in age.
The 6x9 Linhoff Rolex Roll back s/n 11447
SChneider Xenar 4.5/150mm lens s/n 3379636
Schneider-Kreuznach Xena f3.5/105mm s/n 3933004

Many Thanks in advance

Hayden,
Sorry but I don't have those records.

Bob, I have another Technika II I need a date for. There is no serial number on the camera. The only markings are "D.R.P. ang" and "D.R.G.M.ang." The lens is a 13.5cm Zeiss Jena # 1189554 and looks to be original to the camera. The serial number on the lens dates the lens to 1930, so I'm guessing the camera is 1930?

Thanks.

Sorry, I only have numbers from the mid 1940's and later.
