Chronology of cameras Beck R J
The Folding Frena No. 7 is identical to No. 8 except for the lens, which is less performant on No. 7. The 1901 catalog is clear about this difference in quality.
__________
In 1854, two brothers, Richard and Joseph Beck, renamed their London-based optics and microscope company to R & J Beck Ltd after the withdrawal of their third partner, James Smith. The production of cameras began in 1880, and it was in 1892 that the Frena models with their unique system of a notched-edge roll film magazine were introduced.
