Ansco applied the name Readyset to a variety of simple folding rollfilm cameras throughout the company's existence. Commonly these cameras feature a lack of adjustments: fixed focus, one shutter speed, fixed apertures. Slightly more complex variations were issued under names such as Readyset Special or Readyset Royal, and featured adjustable apertures, or a selection of shutter speeds.
A variety of film formats was used, including 116, 120, 127 and 620 - but referred to in Ansco's documents by their own names for these sizes.
