The Model G was one of Detrola's bakelite cameras for 3×4 cm exposures on 127 film. It was a less expensive alternative to the model H,[1] lacking that version's extinction light meter.
While the more expensive Detrolas had metal viewfinder housings, the flimsy molded-plastic viewfinder of the G is often found warped or disintegrated entirely.
