The Bolsey-Flex was a name variant of the Ising Pucky camera, made in Germany. It was a 6x6 pseudo TLR, with guess focusing, a 80/7.7 lens with three aperture openings (7.7, 11, 16), and a Time & Instant synchronized shutter. Film advance was via a button and there was double exposure prevention. It had a round finder window, and a small finder hood.

The Bolseyflex was a later varaint, with a square finder window, a larger finder hood and a restyled body. The aperture numbers were replaced by Sunny vs Cloudy indications.

Both had a greenish leatherette finish.
