Hello:

Just thought I would leave a little info on this arcane camera. To remove the back one must first unscrew the small screw located at the bottom rear of the bakelite back. After it's out as far as it can go you must push in on the head of the screw. This moves a spring loaded bracket/cam inside the cameras base that releases the back and allows it to slide off easily.
Would like to hear from anyone else who has had experience with these cameras.

I don't have that model but only a vest pocket sized Korelle for 127 film. It is still waiting to be used for the first time after a long rest but it should be in OK condition.
My Meopta Flexaret has the same system for opening the back BTW only that the back is hinged.
