R.F. Hunter Ltd. were a importing and distribution company based at 51 Gray's Inn Road in Central London, England - who included various cameras in their products. They seemed to specialise in quite odd-ball cameras, such as the gravity-control shuttered Purma and the stainless-steel fronted Gilbert box camera with rotating viewfinder.

In the early 1930s, Hunter's distributed Celfix cine projectors and cameras and Hunter-rebadged Bingoscope cine projectors, and supplied films and film strips for these.

Hunter's also supplied Franka cameras and Rolleiflexes in the 1950s-60s.
