ICA Delta (208)

ICA · Germany · 1912 · 135 film

The Delta (208) by ICA is a basic 135 format camera introduced in 1912, representing a very early attempt at commercializing 35mm still photography. As one of ICA's offerings in this fledgling format before the company's later consolidation into Zeiss-Ikon, it likely served as a simple, compact alternative to larger plate cameras, catering to photographers seeking portability and reduced film costs. Its design would have been functional rather than innovative, reflecting the experimental nature of 35mm photography at this stage before landmark models like the Leica established the format's potential.
