16mm Subminiature Camera: Stylophot

Details

Launched in the mid-1950s, the Stylophot is a black bakelite camera with a revolutionary design that mimics the shape of a thick fountain pen or an elongated lighter. This particular model features a 27mm f/3.5 Roussel Anastigmat lens and stands out for its ingenious film advance mechanism: to move to the next frame, the user simply performs a "pumping" motion with the metal top. Its compact size and red vinyl carrying case made it a sought-after object for fans of discreet photography and mid-century French industrial design.
