& quot; & quot; the Fotron was a video camera manufactured in Glendale, California by the Traid Corporation and offered door-to-door during the 1960s. Intended mostly at females, it was marketed as a simpler option to & quot; & quot; complex & quot; conventional electronic cameras. The Fotron had a variety of ingenious functions, consisting of an integrated electronic flash, rechargeable battery, motorized film advance, and push-button exposure control. It utilized basic 828 rollfilm packaged in a proprietary snap-in cartridge. Nevertheless, due to its high price (ranging from $ 150 USD to nearly $ 500 [1] and that movie needed to be returned to the producer for processing, the Fotron is frequently concerned as something of a fraud & quot;&

quot;.< br/ > So yes, the Fotron was a HUGE beast of a video camera that was unloaded on unsuspecting homemakers across the US who discovered modern cams and flash units of the age far too complicated.

This electronic camera remains in good vintage condition – there is some moderate wear on the electronic camera body. It comes with its original, leather/ leatherette Fotron-branded case. (Which I imagine was a pricey upgrade.) This is a rollfilm camera, and as rollfilm is not made, this item needs to be resigned to & quot; & quot; display screen product just & quot; & quot; status. It makes a nifty design item, and now that you have all the facts, a fantastic anecdote for mixer.

< br/ > This item will be shipped locally in a USPS Top priority Mail. We are constantly happy to deliver worldwide, but this electronic camera will certainly have to take a trip by means of USPS Priority Mail International due to the fact that of its weight.
