Ensign No 2 X Ensignette De Luxe.

Back to the camera collection this time.

This is an Ensign No 2 X Ensignette De Luxe. It was made by Houghtons Ltd. I am not sure of exactly when this model was produced, probably between 1912 and 1920, as there were several models made.

This example has a Velos Anastigmat Series T, f6.3 lens (Sern. 122993) with an aperture range of f6.3 to f32.

The shutter is an Ensign Simplex, having speed settings of 25, 50, 100, B and T.

The focus range was from 5 feet to infinity. As you can see in this image, the design has a Patent No. of 28464 and was registered in 1907.

The case, unfortunately, is not in the best condition.
