CAMERAS USING THE MINOX CASSETTE
If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, Minox has a lot to be proud of. Minox got the ball rolling, but many others have tried to improve on the original design. If you are able to provide more accurate information than is listed here, please contact us. There are other cameras that use film that is approximately the same size as Minox film and these are listed in the miscellaneous submini film formats category.

(late 1950's) An improved version of the Doryu 2-16 (which took 16mm film), this version took 8x8mm images on Minox film. Fixed-focus 23mm (f3.3) lens. Shutter speed of B and 1/30. It is a pistol shaped camera with an interchangeable lens mount. It used the same problematic flash system of the Doryu 2-16. It is not clear if this camera ever made it to production.

A small and simple European submini from Italy. It was made by Società Costruzioni Articoli Tecnici around 1950. Different sources claim different film specifications on this camera. Some state that it used 16mm film, some Minox cassettes. It is possible that two or even three models were made. It is not clear if any models actually used the Minox cassette.
