All three cameras are strongly constructed, with two built-in view-finders. There is a single-blade type shutter with a plunger shutter release to guard against ‘camera shake’ which helps the user to take clear, sharp pictures. The cameras take eight pictures 2¼ x 3¼ in. on No. 620 ‘Kodak’ film. Each camera measures 4¾ X 4½ x 3.3/8 in. All these cameras can be loaded with ‘Kodacolor’ film, for taking full-colour pictures in bright sunshine.
