Chronology of cameras Asaflex

The brand Asaflex was registered on March 15, 1977, and renewed in February 1987, by the Compagnie de Diffusion Internationale et Commerciale (S.A). It was re-registered in February 1988, again for photographic equipment.
Subsequently, the "Gorthex Group" (located at 140 rue de la Pompe, 75016 Paris) simultaneously filed for the trademarks Asaflex and Gorthex on January 23, 1997.

__________

This model appears to be more advanced than the cameras typically encountered under the Asaflex brand, but when placed in its era, its characteristics become standard. It is fixed-focus, at a time when autofocus is the norm. According to the inscription on the front, it recognizes the DX code on the film cartridge to automatically set the sensitivity. Film transport is ensured by an electric motor.

It has a large, bright viewfinder. This model fits into the trend of BF (Big Finder) cameras, known here as Megaview. This detail allows dating it to the early 1990s.
