| Standard Cameras Ltd. were a manufacturer based in Birmingham, England. They made a cheap camera range branded Conway. Most (if not all?) of these Conway Cameras took 6x9cm images on 120 film.
The cameras were very similar to (and had interchangeable parts with) some of the Coronet products; the box cameras having unusual covers on the viewfinders (which provided some shade when in use) just like the Coronets. Standard certainly had close links, and may have been the same company (see link to MadeInBirmingham.org). Standard Cameras Ltd. traded between 1931-1955[1].
