The Reflex III was made by the United States Camera company, which was located on 17 North Loomis Street, Chicago, Illinois U.S.A.

Design

The Reflex III used 620 roll film and resembled a twin lens reflex camera. On top, there was a cover which could be tilted up forward to reveal the viewfinder. It was meant to be held around the user's waiste and you would look down into the viewfinder to compose your subject. The camera was made out of plastic but featured a hotshoe on the left that could accept a matching flash unit. It was powered by two AA batteries, which were loaded through a cover on the lower right side of the camera's body.
