| − | The '''Visoflex''' is a [[reflex housing]] made by [[Leitz]] to add ground-glass focusing to [[rangefinder camera]]s. Preceded by the earlier [[PLOOT]], the '''Visoflex I''' was introduced in 1951, followed by the '''Visoflex II''' in 1960, and a '''Visoflex III''' in 1964<REF>According to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia] article [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leica_Camera#Single-lens_reflex_cameras "Leica Camera"].</REF>.

| − | The Visoflex I required double [[cable release]]s (one for the camera and a second for the mirror box); but the Visoflex II and III used an external arm which lowered directly onto the [[shutter release]] atop the camera body. The Visoflex III introduced an [[instant-return mirror]].
