Hey

Ive found this very old Voigtlander camera that my grandfather bought over 50 years ago. Now i cleaned it, and i can set the shutter time and everything, there is a (new) film inside, but when i try to take a picture i dont hear any click or something. What do i do? how do i know if i took a picture or not? I thought some of you might be able to help me with this camera since i have seen a few posts about older camera's on here.

Any help would be appreciated wink.gif

Does anyone have an idea? The camera doesnt make any sound when you press the button to take a picture, is it still possible that it actually takes a picture?

Open the back and press the shutter, you should see stuff moving.

Are you sure it's wound on properly?
