A pseudo TLR is a camera imitating the shape of a TLR, but with no coupling of the taking and viewing lens. The finder is not a true reflex finder with a ground glass indicating the focus, but an oversize brilliant finder. It is a camera with guess focusing.
The pseudo TLR vogue was around the 1950s and 1960s, when the Rolleiflex was the typical pro camera.
Later, the pseudo SLR toy cameras used the same kind of trick, but were usually worse.
