Collectors Notes:
Manufactured in Wolverhampton, England, the Corfield Periflex 1 was launched in 1953 as a British alternative to German rangefinders. Its periscope focusing system allowed precise manual focus without a coupled rangefinder. The camera uses the Leica thread mount (LTM), making it compatible with a range of vintage lenses. Increasingly rare in working condition, especially with original accessories.

- 35mm film format
- Fixed Corfield 45mm f/2.8 lens
- Unique periscope-style focusing system
