You sure that the first number isn’t a 6?

[drahtausloeser]

Actually yes... Although a "6" would fit a lot better

Sorry, that number is from a 1965 Super Technika V 5x7 camera. But your picture is of a 45 Master Technika.

My Studienkamera 70's serial number is 50606.
May I ask the year of its birth?

Thanks!

Thank you, Bob. This is very helpful. Do you know whether it would be possible to swap the hot shoe between a 1965 Super Technika V 5x7 and a early 70ies MT 4x5?

Thank you,
Peter

Should be no problem. Just unscrew the retaining ring under the top of the camera.

Thanks. Is there any other way to tell the age? Like the two knobs on the flap, maybe?

There is a number underneath the body covering.
