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.

__________

It's a low-end, fixed-focus camera, at a time when autofocus is the norm. Its only "luxury" is red-eye reduction when using the flash.
It has a large, bright viewfinder. This model is part of the BF (Big Finder) trend. This detail allows it to be dated from the early part of the 1990s.
