Newton Photo Products was a camera maker in USA. Popular Photography in March 1947 gave their address as 4720 E. Washington Blvd., Los Angeles, CA., and in 1948 it was 4728 E. Washington Blvd.

The company made two cameras from 1947. The first was a rail-mounted 4x5 view camera, the "New-Vue". It had front shift and rear tilt adjustments, a rotating back and a 20-inch bellows extension. Focussing was by a central threaded rod, a similar design used on another 1948 view camera Brand, that was also made in LA. Their second camera was the "Speed-Vue" a similar design that could also be used as a press camera. It had a 10-inch bellows extension.
