Chronology of cameras Ricoh 

Ricohflex Million is one of the latest version of pressed steel Ricohflex.
This is still  a simple camera but full featured.
It has a sync socket on the front and on the accessory shoe.
It has a performing shutter allowing exposure time from 1 second to 1/300ième and featuring a self timer.
His back depending on the model and the available caches allows multiple formats with 120 film, 127 Color Back 44 accessorie and even 24x36 with the colorback (or Ricohkin) and autostop options.
The Ricoh historical website  refers to a "New Million" model whose only difference with the Million would be a back with more possibilities.

Formats written on the two window's back  of the million are:
4x4cm 6x6cm
And those listed on the three window's back of the New Million are:
5x2 4x4cm 6x6cm, 4x3cm 6cm 4.5 x6cm

The only problem is that so far I never found or seen the caches corresponding to these rectangular formats to be inserted into the grooves of the cassette.
