The Deluxe Twin Lens Reflex is one of the less common cameras made by Imperial for the "Six Twenty" film size.

Despite the grandiose name, this camera is not a genuine TLR, as it lacks true reflex focusing. In fact, the lens is fixed focus and it's simply a pseudo TLR. Inside the top hood (with a red "reflex" badge) there is a brilliant finder for framing. The camera shoots twelve exposures of 2¼" square per roll of film, advanced with a red window. There are no exposure controls, although the camera could be fitted with a large flash bulb holder which plugged into the side of the camera.

There are at least two cosmetic variations on this model, differing in the wind knob, shutter release, and other details.
