The origin of the brand Cinex (or Cinéx) is unclear, as at least one camera from Cardinal of New York also carried the name—with the same accented E. There is also a Cinex from Imperial, a name variant of the Imperial Mark 27.

Cinex camera have been seen carrying the (probably fictional) company names King Sales Co., Craftsman Sales Co., etc. We are tentatively attributing the models here to the Spartus/Monarch/Galter group of camera brands, based on the resemblance between these cameras and others in the Falcon/Spartus Chicago cluster.
