MPP Microflex with f/3.5 77.5mm coated Taylor, Taylor and Hobson Micronar lens in Prontor-SVS shutter speeded 1 second to 1/300th plus B and delayed action. The camera produces 12 6x6 images in colour or monochrome on standard 120 film.
Overall condition is excellent. The lens is clean, apart from what seems to be a coating mark towards the edge of the rear element which should not affect performance. The shutter works on all speeds, delayed action functions correctly and focusing movement is smooth and precise. As in the case of the Rolleiflex, the camera features automatic film loading and lever wind, which also tensions the shutter. Film spacing is fine.
Speed and aperture are set by means of the two wheels between the viewing and taking lenses. A button in the centre of the aperture wheel engages or disengages the exposure value scale. The camera is complete with a photocopy of instructions, a UV filter on the taking lens and a lens hood.
As fans of twin lens reflex cameras will know, the Microflex, which was produced by Micro Precision Products of Kingston-upon-Thames, is quite a rare camera as only a few thousand were made.
