Megor advertisement from The British Journal Photographic Almanac 1932 image by Dirk HR Spennemann (Image rights) |
The Megor is either of two similar strut-folding cameras for 3x4 cm exposures on 127 film, sold by Meyer in the early 1930s. McKeown states that the first type is a rebadged Korelle 3x4 made by Kochmann, with any of several Meyer lenses as in the advertisement shown here, and that the second is a rebadged Metharette, made by Merkel.[1]
