Ur-MINOX

Dr. h.c. Walter Zapp, the inventor of the subminiature camera MINOX, was born on September 4th, 1905 in Riga (Latvia)
MINOX CAMERAS THE MAKING OF A CLASSIC CAMERA
A camera that has ambitions to become a classic has to feature an ingenious design which will enthuse photographers for years to come. The concept at MINOX has always been to provide cameras with the smallest possible dimensions, demonstrating absolute precision and a top-class design. Thats MINOX. Past, present, future. Theres always a clever mind behind every classic design. And the MINOX story must always be told with reference to the name Walter Zapp. The legendary designer who wrote photographic history with his revolutionary invention of the first Ur-MINOX in 1938. The ingenious idea was to be seen in its dimensions. A camera smaller than a cigar and weighing less than a cigarette lighter. And featuring an excellent lens. This was a stroke of lasting genius - as the MINOX ECX and the MINOX CLX still proof today. And of course, it was no surprise to see these miniature cameras with the 8x11mm film format go on to become world famous as espionage cameras. The MINOX GT-E and GT-S are almost equally famous: with nearly 2 million sold cameras they are one of the worlds smallest 35 mm viewfinder cameras. Classic cameras with more than just excellent design. MINOX stands for proven lens quality and robust mechanics Made in Germany. Enough possibilities for creative imagination of the photographer. All products from MINOX are made in this tradition.

The advantages of this 8 x 11 classic are not only appreciated by professionals. You can always rely on the smallest of the MINOX cameras for providing superb family and holiday photos.
