Sida Extra Back
Description
There were several Sida cameras made in various countries including Germany, France, England and Poland.
Sida Extra was produced in 1938. It is a small eye-level camera making 25 x 25mm exposures. It is constructed from brown Bakelite. It is similar to the standard Sida but it has the name "EXTRA" molded into the body above the lens. It used proprietary Sida spools and film.
There is very little to say about this camera, having only a T/I shutter. It's difficult to see what the word "EXTRA" on the body refers to. 😆
