DESCRPTION
The Irwin Dual Reflex is made with a Bakelite body with front and back made from pressed steel. It has a decorative Art Deco scripted faceplate. When the hood is opened, it reveals a ground glass viewfinder showing the whole of the image. The advantage of ground glass viewfinders is that no tilting is required to get the image centralised. The disadvantage is that they are usually not very bright. It also has a sports viewfinder found in the hood. It is sometimes called a pseudo twin lens reflex camera. It isn’t a true TLR because the top lens is just part of the viewfinder and does not aid focussing
It takes 16 1¼ x 1⅝ (3 x 4.5 cm) inch images on 127 roll film. The Eyvar meniscus lens has an aperture of f/16 and the time/instant shutter has a speed of 1/60s.
The back is removable for loading, and has two red windows and a large retaining knob. It has a single tripod socket on the base.
