The Sprite is a strut-folding camera for 4.5×6 cm plates or 127 roll film, made in Italy by Murer & Duroni from 1915. It has an f/8 Rapid Aplanat lens, with three aperture stops in a rotating plate, selected with the lever below the lens. It has shutter speeds 1/25 - 1/100 second, plus 'B'. It has a Newton-type viewfinder (a single negative lens, with a pointer at the rear to position the eye), which slides up for use, and is attached to a lens cover.


Note: There is also the Ilford Sprite 127 and the Ilford Sprite 35
