Description:
The Corfield Periflex 3a is a British-made 35mm camera produced in the late 1950s, known for its unique periscope-style reflex focusing system and compact Leica-inspired design. This example is paired with the Lumax 45mm f/2.8 lens in M39 screw mount, offering classic rendering and vintage character. Offered here with a stiff shutter speed selector — ideal for restoration or display.
Condition:
Overall Condition: Fair
Camera body shows light cosmetic wear. Shutter fires. Reflex focusing mechanism operational. Viewfinder clear. Shutter speed selector is very stiff and requires firm adjustment. Lens shows minor surface marks and internal haze consistent with age. Aperture blades clean and responsive. Focus ring smooth.
Included:

- Lumax 45mm f/2.8 lens (M39 mount)
Collectors Notes:
The Periflex 3a was one of the final models in the Periflex line, offering improved ergonomics and a more refined shutter mechanism. Manufactured in Wolverhampton, England, it reflects a distinctly British approach to camera design, blending rangefinder aesthetics with reflex focusing. The Lumax 45mm f/2.8 lens is a Tessar-type design, compact and well-suited to the body. This example is ideal for collectors, display, or sympathetic restoration.

- 35mm film camera with M39 screw mount

- Cloth focal plane shutter (1s–1/1000s + B)
