The Makiflex is a 9x9 cm SLR camera made by Plaubel in 1961.[1][2] It has a focal-plane shutter with speeds 4 - 1/400 second, plus 'B'. It has rack-and-pinion bellows focusing. A simplified model, the Makiflex Standard was made a few years later; this model has fewer slow shutter speeds, and does not stop down the lens automatically.[3]
