The Super Ikonta 532/16 is a folding camera produced by the German company Zeiss Ikon from 1937 to 1955. It is part of the Ikonta line and takes 11 6x6 cm images on 120 type rollfilm. This model was an upgrade from its predecessor, the Super Ikonta 530/16, and was designed to resolve frame overlapping issues. It features a coupled rangefinder, with the rangefinder and viewfinder windows combined. The 532/16 was generally sold as the Super Ikonta I 6x6 cm or Super Ikonta I 2 1/4 x 2 1/4. It came equipped with an 8cm f2.8 Tessar lens in a Compur-Rapid shutter and included an automatic film stop and frame counting mechanism. Post-war models could also feature a Synchro-Compur shutter with X-synchronization and M-synchronization, and had a self-timer. The camera also included double exposure prevention and an accessory shoe for items like the Contameter and Albada finder.
