The Fotron was a plastic camera from the early 1960s made in Glendale, California by a company called Traid Corporation. It had some unusual features for the time, with electronic flash, power winding and rechargeable batteries, and a peculiar button-controlled exposure system - making it heavy and bulky. The film was 828 but packaged into catridges, so that the camera had to be sent back to the vendor for processing and reloading. each cartridge held only ten 1x1inch frames.
It was sold door-to-door at very high prices - from $150 upwards.
