Item is a subminiature camera for 14 x 21 mm exposures on 35 mm film in special cartridges. The camera is a side-by-side twin-lens reflex camera with one lens reflecting upward to the ground glass for viewing and the other lens, a Tessinon f2.8/25 mm, reflects the image down to the film which travels across the bottom of the camera. The shutter speed is 2-500 and the camera has a spring-motor advance for 5-8 frames per winding.
