Zeiss-Ikon's top product line of folding medium format cameras were badged Ikonta and were generally of superior quality when compared with corresponding folding camera models of Zeiss-Ikon's Nettar product line.

History & Models
Launched in 1929, they were offered in four models: A, B, C, & D. The A, B, & C size took 120 film. The A, B, & C produced negatives in 6x4.5 format, 6x6 format, and 6x9 format, respectively. The Ikonta D produced larger negatives on either 116 or 616 format film. respectively. There was also a Baby Ikonta, which used 127 film. The first series of Ikonta were also labeled the 520 series. The Ikonta A, B, & C, were also 520, 520/16, and the 520/2,
Around 1940, the 520 series gave way to the 521 series which added a shutter release on the body and a double exposure prevention. Only the A, B, & C models continued. In the early 1950s, the 523 was launched for the B & C models. A chrome top plate with an integral finder and an accessory shoe was added. The 524 series added an uncoupled rangefinder and was also called the 'Mess' Ikonta. Hubert Nerwin designed the Ikonta 35 for 35mm film. It was a viewfinder camera. Nerwin created versions with with rangefinder, the Contina with separate optical viewfinder, and the Contessa with a big optical viewfinder plus superimposed Super-Ikonta-like coupled rangefinder. The Ikonta 35 and the Contina were soon renamed to Contina and Contina II.
In the United States early Ikontas were sold under the name Ikomat.
Super Ikonta
Variants which included a coupled rangefinder which were named Super Ikonta. Especially the early Super Ikonta rangefinder cameras were copied by competitors and concurrents since they had an ingenious way to couple the rangefinder by means of one optical element of the rangefinder mounted at the lens standard. An example of such a copy is the Moskva-2.
The model numbers began with a 530 series and followed by the 531 series.

Serial numbers from 70' and 80's era Epiphone guitars made in Japan are not supported.
The final Super Ikonta folders were the Super Ikonta III and Super Ikonta IV. Both were in 6x6 format and had the advantage of a film winding mechanism which allowed the film to be advanced without having to watch numbers in red windows. The only difference between the III and IV, was that the latter had a selenium meter. Their catalogue numbers were 531/16 and 534/16, respectively.
After the second World War the Ikonta cameras were produced in West Germany's Zeiss-Ikon plant in Stuttgart. The East German Zeiss-Ikon in Dresden continued the production of a traditional Ikonta model, naming it 'Ercona'.
Skype for business for outlook add on. Plugins usually become disabled when they crash Outlook (several times I think). Forcing the plugin to start might in turn might be undesireable and instead cause outlook to not open att all without running: outlook.exe /SAFE The likely cause IMO is that you have old versions of Skype for business or Office. Outlook will try to protect the user experience by disabling add-ins that it considers to be misbehaving. When the Netmail add-in is loaded it needs to contact a URL, download settings, perform authentication, etc. And in some environments this process could take longer than Outlook is willing to wait. Run Outlook as administrator (no need to set up a new account/mailbox if your logged-in user is not local admin) Navigate to File -> Options -> Add-Ins -> COM Add-ins. Now simply remove the Skype Meeting Add-in from the list. Re-add the Meeting Add-in from the same menu. Path to the add-in is dependant on your Office version. Skype Meeting Addin Deactivates once i quit Outlook 2016 Deployed skype for business via office 365 and tested the outlook meeting addin for skype for business but anytime i quit outlook the add in is automatically disabled. To resolve this issue, you can manually enable the Skype Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2016 in Outlook. To do this, follow these steps: Start Outlook. On the File menu, click Options. In the navigation pane, click Add-Ins. On the Manage menu, select COM Add-Ins, and then click Go.
The West German plant launched a 35mm Ikonta viewfinder model which was continued as Contina.
Lenses & Shutters
Ikontas were fitted with a wide range of lenses and shutters and the cameras were originally priced accordingly. The primary difference between Ikontas and Nettar models was often the lens and shutter combination.
The lenses were f/6.3 Novar f/4.5 Novar, f/3.5 Novar and f/3.5 Tessar. The focal length was 75mm for 6x6 format cameras and 105mm for 6x9 format. Novar lenses were a triplet designed outsourced to another German optical company, typically Rodenstock or Steinheil. The f/6.3 was dropped after the 520 series. Tessar lenses were 4-element design made by Zeiss. They were uncommon on Ikonta or Mess Ikonta models and more often found on Super Ikontas.
Ikontas were also provided with a range of shutters, the simplest being a three-speed Klio on early models. Other shutters may include the Vario (3-speed), Prontor (4-speed), Prontor-S (8-speed), Compur (8-speed), and Synchro-Compur (10-speed).
Post-war Ikontas tended to have better shutter and lenses as the cheaper combinations were relegated to the Nettar line.
Lenses after the war were coated, which reduce the light reflections between the elements. Uncoated may flare more often and can lead to distorted colors if used with modern color film. Post-war shutters usually had flash synchronization. Immediately after the war, some models were fitted with Schneider Xenar lenses.
On all Ikonta's focusing is performed by rotating the front lens (front lens focusing).
