Chronology of cameras Maruso Trading Co.
The Top is a small camera with a metallic appearance, yet it's a thin layer of hammered paint that entirely covers its bakelite body, giving it its robust appearance. Equipped with a double viewfinder, at eye level and a rectifier through the use of a semi-transparent mirror, it allows for the capture of 10 images in a 14 x 14 mm format on a 17.5 mm film. There is another model of the Top without a rectifier viewfinder.
Its 8.5/25 mm lens is placed in the center of the front face in a square opening, enhancing its appearance as a well-finished device. Its shutter allows for instant and B mode. The film advance button can be either black plastic or metal.
A simplified version dating back to 1970, the Top II, lacks the reflex viewfinder and the B mode.
