Plaubel Makina

Plaubel Makina

The Plaubel Makina was a series of medium format press cameras. The original Makina was manufactured by Plaubel & Co. in Germany from 1912 through 1953. Plaubel was later sold to Doi Group, which designed new Makina cameras that sold from 1978 through the 1980s.

All Makina models had leaf shutters and rangefinder focusing with collapsible bellows.

German-made Plaubel Makina models included the 1, 2, 2s, 3, and 3R.

The Japanese-made Plaubel Makina was a major redesign with Nikkor lenses and integrated metering. It was manufactured first by Copal and later by Mamiya. Models 67 and 670 have Nikkor 80mm f/2.8 lenses, the wide-angle model W67 or 67W has a "Wide Nikkor" 55mm f/4.5 lens, and the 69W Proshift has a 47mm Schneider Super Angulon. The "67" series models take ten 6×7cm exposures on 120 rollfilm, while the 69W takes 6×9cm exposures. The 670 model also accepted 220 rollfilm (20 exposures per roll).
