Linhof Serial Numbers

[Bob Salomon]

Bob,
The other 57 I linked to is s/n 26268. Is that a listed s/n?

Found it!

Technika IV from about 1960

Bob,
My mistake, as Andreas points out the Back says DBP.
The Tech has Tan coloured covering.
Matching coloured finish to the bed & track.
3 red line detail on the front standard.
It seems to have all the features of a very early 60's Tech IV 5x7 camera.
But the number stamped on the accessory shoe is 26492.

Found that one also! Also a Technika IV from about 1961 or 2.

Bob,
Great stuff! It's good to know my 57 checks out ok. Thanks very much!

Hi, Bob! Thanks for your dedicated help to all of us! Here's another one - marked "DRP" on back w/serial #222132. BTW, it's a 5x7. Any idea if the back on this thing rotates & how? It seems to be set up for a single-sheet filmholder. Thanks again.

Since that is a camera made before or during the war I don't have information on the 3rd Reich cameras. Only on the ones made starting in 1946 or later.

Shooter, I have a war-time 5x7 and the back rotates exactly like the later models...just push at the corner edges and move it past the detente position. There aren't any locking knobs or levers.

Hi Bob!

I have got a Linhof Super Technica with serial number on accessory shoe 82232. The camera is with rangefinder and it came with two lenses but the RF cams are missing.
Can you help me with the camera model, so I will know what I should look for.

Thank you in advance,
Eva
