Alsaflex 

Conceived by the genius Lucién Doddin, the same man of the Alsaphot 6 x 9 , and the inventor of the stigmometer, and the raster focusing screen (the center split image and the enhaced defocusing collar used in all modern SLR cameras),  Alsaflex was an original breakthrough in camera design.

*Crank film advance, *24 x 24 mm frame on 35mm film, *Porro type prismatic viewfinder, *Interchangeable lenses,  *Automatic diaphragm bayonet mount lenses, *Decentering mounting plate for prespective control, *Opening back for single shot capabilities,  *Fan type metal focal plane shutter, *Speeds from 1 sec to 1/2400 and *Bulb and Electronic flash synchro in all speeds!

Absolutely unreached technology in no camera up to nowadays!

Announced in 1949, prototype shown in 1950, and series production from 1952. is devinitively the most advanced design in 35mm SLR cameras the world has ever seen!
