Chronology of cameras Birdseye
McKeown describes this camera in the eleventh edition of his guide as being identical to the Herbert George Savoy. To be a bit more precise, I would say that technically it is the same model 620 camera, and the front and back parts are interchangeable between the two. The triggers, film advance buttons, and closing clips are located in the same positions on both cameras. The biggest difference is the front face, which is much more rounded on the Birdseye. The Birdseye's viewfinder consists of two parts not connected by a tube, as is the case with the Savoy. On the right side, the Birdseye has two flash contacts.
