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 tiny camera features a fixed-focus lens of 9.5/28 mm. The image is clear from 1.20 m to infinity. The shutter speed is 1/90 of a second and 1/50 with flash. The film advance is facilitated by a system similar to Agfa's Repitomatic.

It's a Haking Super Mini that has been rebranded.

__________

On July 2, 1975, Haking filed a patent (No. 4,032,940) for a small retractable camera. The silhouette of the Haking Super Mini is easily recognizable in it. The patent refers to patents filed by Agfa in what would become the Repitomatic, by Rollei in 1962, for a retractable viewfinder, and to those of other inventors.
