Ross-Ensign's Fulvueflex Synchroflash was a pseudo TLR, made from 1957 to 1959.

It followed the line of the Ful-Vue Super, but now sported a plastic (polystyrene[1]) body and lenses, and unlike the 620-film Ful-Vue Super, the Fulvueflex returned to using 120 film. The "Astaross" lens is fixed-focus, with no choice of aperture, and the shutter has a single instantaneous speed and a B setting. The body splits in half diagonally for film loading, released by turning a small metal plate on either side.


  1. it proudly says polystyrene in the manual, not Bakelite as listed in some places.
