Insta-Flash is a simple twin lens film camera from around the late 1950s. We can't precisely date it, but the Chicago-based company changed its name to 'Imperial Camera Company' in 1961 so it had to have been made after 1945 (the company's founding) but before the name change. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera features a single shutter speed and contacts for a flash bulb holder (not included). With its bakelite and metal construction and lightning bolt motif, this camera is an archetypal mid-century consumer camera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis camera uses 620 film and a take-up spool is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eManual\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the manual for a slightly different iteration of this camera with the same features: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cameramanuals.org\/pdf_files\/insta-flex_camera.pdf\"\u003ehttps:\/\/cameramanuals.org\/pdf_files\/insta-flex_camera.pdf\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eThe camera appears to be in good condition for its age (see photos) and shutter fires. However, its ground glass viewfinder is a bit dim. Given its simplicity and the fact 620 film is somewhat hard to find, we envision it being used as a prop or display camera. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Herbert George","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50082798141728,"sku":"NWP-VINT-INSTAF-20250411","price":36.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/4401\/3398\/files\/herbert_george_insta-flash_vintage_film_camera_20250411_10.jpg?v=1744400461","url":"https:\/\/www.newwavepool.ca\/products\/insta-flash-vintage-twin-lens-camera-by-herbert-george","provider":"New Wave Pool","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
