The Dacora Dignette is a series of viewfinder cameras from Dacora-Kamerawerk in Reutlingen, Germany. These were part of a broader range of 35mm cameras, including the higher-spec 'Super Dignette' and 'Super Dignette Electric' offering rangefinders and light meters, which the basic Dignette lacks.
The Dignette F is a version with a built-in flash reflector. Dignette cameras were also marketed as Ilford Sportsman.

Later Dignette models
In the later 1960s, the rangefinder models branded Super Dignette changed to a boxier body style, and this also happened with the viewfinder Dignette models.
