The Filius-Kamera is a cheap plastic novelty camera for 3×4 cm pictures on unperforated 35 mm film (828 film or Juka size).[1] It was made by Isoplast GmbH in Bad Godesberg,on the outskirts of Bonn, Germany, in the mid-1950s. It has a single-speed shutter, and an f/11 meniscus lens. There are a few varieties of the camera, including one with a bulb flash attachment.[2] McKeown states that the Filius-Kamera is a straightforward copy of the Photo-ette by the Victory Manufacturing Company of Chicago.[1]
