No hi ha dos, sense tres / Three Ihagees with a history

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

Perquè tenir dues Ihagee de format 9x12 fabricades a mitjans dels anys 20... quan en pots tenir tres? Ups, em repeteixó, he he.

Ja fa un temps vaig fer aquesta foto amb només dues d'aquestes càmeres, aquí podeu llegir-ne més detalls de tot plegat, si voleu:

Perque una (a la esquerra) és un patrimoni familiar, però les altres dues son meves, amb les seves caracteristiques peculiars. Totes tres són Ihagee Patent Duplex 720 fabricades cap a 1925.

En tot cas i com a resum, el meu avi patern va comprar la càmera de la dreta, la més nova de les tres. I la va heredar ja fa molt de temps un familiar. Però jo vaig comprar la de la esquerra fa un parell d'anys, amb la idea de fer-la servir com la del meu avi, buscant la màxima similitud possible. L'unic problema és que el dors d'aquesta càmera dona fuites de llum que desgracien moltes de les fotografies. Per sort, ara he trobat i comprat la càmera del mig de la imatge, amb un dors en molt millor estat. Encara s'assembla més i tot a la del meu avi, amb la única excepció de la marca del objectiu, un Goerz Dogmar f4.5/135mm en comptes d'un Meyer-Gorlitz Doppel-Anastigmat Veraplan f4.5/135mm. Com podeu veure, son de fabricants diferents però amb les mateixes característiques.

===================================================

Why have two 9x12 format Ihagees made in the mid 1920s... when you can have three? Oops, I'm repeating myself, heh heh.

I took this photo a while ago with just two of these cameras, you can read more details about it all here if you want:

Because one (on the left) is a family heritage, but the other two are mine, with their peculiar characteristics. All three are Ihagee Patent Duplex 720 manufactured around 1925.

In any case and to summarize, my paternal grandfather bought the camera on the right, the newest of the three. And it was inherited a long time ago by a relative. But I bought the one on the left a couple of years ago, with the idea of using it like my grandfather's, looking for as much similarity as possible. The only problem is that the back of this camera leaks light that spoils many of the photographs. Luckily, I have now found and bought the camera in the middle, with a back in much better condition. It still closely resembles (even more) my grandfather's, with the sole exception of the lens brand, a Goerz Dogmar f4.5/135mm instead of a Meyer-Gorlitz Doppel-Anastigmat Veraplan f4.5/135mm. As you can see, they are from different manufacturers but with the same characteristics.
