The Avus series of folding plate cameras was made by Voigtländer in Germany from 1913 to 1934. These medium-to-upper-quality cameras are seen in both 6.5x9cm and 9x12cm versions. They have double-extension bellows and are equipped with Ibsor or Compur shutters (either the older dial-set or the newer rim-set versions)

The front lens standard allows a small amount of both rise/fall and lateral shift. Otherwise they are typical folding plate cameras of the period, with a big folding sports finder and additional brilliant finder. The name Avus was taken from a popular car race circuit in Berlin, the first speedway of Germany.

The camera is in good used cosmetic, please see photos provided.

The shutter is firing well across all speeds.

Optically the lens shows some internal dirt.

Aperture selection is positive.

Bellows are light tight.
