In the late era of Argus camera when all its cameras had become rebadges of foreign models, this chrome autoexposure beauty from Japan was one of the nicer offerings for 126 film. This camera is obscure enough to lack an entry in McKeown's; but Henry Gambino's Argomania attributes its manufacture to Sedic.[1] The Instant Load 284 was a similar high-specification model but promoted as having a unique lens design (both are 40mm f/2.8 however).
