Chronology of cameras Pontiac 

Traduction par Jonas Otter, Suède.

The Baby Lynx was initially made in France, then in Morocco, following the move of the factory to Casablanca (1951). In this small 35-mm camera one can recognize some similitaries to the other members of the Lynx family, but here, black paint on aluminium has been replaced by black leatherette. This camera was equipped with various lenses and shutters. The wind and rewind buttons carry engraving “Made in French Morocco” and “Pontiac Maroc”.
