Battery disposal
Information on the disposal of old batteries
The following notice is intended for those who use batteries or products with built-in batteries and no longer resell them in the form in which they were delivered (end users):
1. Free return of used batteries
Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. You are legally obliged to return used batteries to ensure proper disposal. You can dispose of them at a municipal collection point or at a local retailer. As a battery distributor, we are also obligated to take back used batteries. However, our obligation to take back is limited to used batteries of the type that we carry or have carried as new batteries in our product range. You can therefore either return used batteries of the aforementioned type to us with sufficient postage or hand them in free of charge at our shipping warehouse at the address listed in the imprint.
2. Meaning of the battery symbols
Batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheeled bin (see below). This symbol indicates that batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. For batteries containing more than 0.0005 percent mercury by mass, more than 0.002 percent cadmium by mass, or more than 0.004 percent lead by mass, the chemical name of the pollutant used is located below the wheeled bin symbol – where "Cd" stands for cadmium, "Pb" for lead, and "Hg" for mercury.

Description
KW Patent Etui Plate Camera 9x12 with Meyer Optik Görlitz Anastigmat Trioplan f/4.5
Condition and Limitations
Condition: well used.
The body shows only slight signs of wear, such as fine scratches, patina, or minor wear – exactly what you can expect from a well-preserved historical model.
The body shows age-appropriate signs of wear, such as small scratches, patina, or minor wear – a very well-maintained condition for a camera of this age.
Single images in a large format
The KW Patent Etui 9x12cm is a classic plate camera. The camera lens is labeled Meyer Optik Görlitz Anastigmat Trioplan 1:4.5. The camera lens is labeled Meyer Optik Görlitz Anastigmat Trioplan 1:4.5. The large image format supports careful, slowly prepared image composition. Each shot is planned individually; instead of a series on a memory card, a single photographic original takes center stage.
Preparing sharpness and exposure
Manual adjustment of distance, aperture, and shutter; the image is created as a single large-format shot. You first choose the perspective and framing, and then determine the distance and exposure. With a longer focal length and large image format, precise focusing is particularly important. A stable setup makes it easier to maintain the prepared settings until the shutter is released.
Format and matching cassette
Single shots in the plate/sheet film format 9×12cm with a perfectly matching cassette and film backing are intended. The format specification describes the image format. For actual use, the cassette, fold, backing size, and film carrier must fit the specific camera. Identical image dimensions do not automatically mean identical mechanical connections. Therefore, before purchasing film, you should check the back, holder, and film backing as a cohesive system.
Loading, exposing, and developing film
Sheet film is processed individually and must be protected from accidental light according to its sensitivity. Loading depends on the cassette and material. Preparation also includes a suitable exposure measurement and a development process for this exact format. Afterwards, you can view, enlarge, or digitize the image depending on the material.
Consciously choose focal length and use
The focal length indicated on the lens belongs to this image format. It cannot be directly compared to a lens of the same length for 35mm film in terms of angle of view. The process is suitable for subjects where you want to plan time for location, sharpness, and exposure. The specific fit of the back and cassette is therefore more important than the brand name alone.
