Notes & History

Historical Context

The Ciro-flex Model B is an all-American, fully mechanical Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) camera manufactured in the late 1940s. Built first in Detroit, Michigan, and later in Delaware, Ohio, by Ciro Cameras Inc., it was designed as a rugged, no-frills alternative to expensive German TLRs like the Rolleiflex.

It shoots 6x6cm square negatives on standard 120 roll film, making it highly usable today for medium-format film photographers.
