The Pentacon Six System
by TRA
Where can I get an operating
manual for my Pentacon Six?
You can find the Pentacon Six manual at:
http://www.commiecameras.com/ddr/p6/manuals/index.htm
This is Nathan Dayton’s excellent “commiecameras” website.
Oldtimer Cameras of Hatfield, England, can also provide operating manuals,
but not to view on-line. In my experience, manuals from them are
photocopies of the originals.
Their website is www.oldtimercameras.com.

I am sorry that this link doesn’t currently work. (I don’t have
any personal knowledge of the owner of that website.)
As an alternative source for a manual, I suggest that you contact Rolf-Dieter
Baier. See http://www.baierfoto.de/Instructions.html
He currently shows a Praktisix manual. This is similar to, but
not the same as, a Pentacon Six, but he may have a manual for you.
You can e-mail him in English or German.
If Herr Baier can’t help, I suggest that you set up a search on eBay.de
with the key word Bedienungsanleitung or Gebrauchsanweisung.
Important I suggest that you follow the instructions on this
website on loading the camera; following the instructions in the manual
can result in problems!
