As is. N.B. Jean-Marie PRADES: Bernard Vial, in his article in the Club Niépce Lumière bulletin, describes it perfectly, and does not think that Jonte is the author of the 1906 patent that gave birth to this camera. We can, however, assume that Jonte was not entirely unaware of this achievement, as the model presented here is equipped with Jonte lenses, and the small 45 x 107 mm model bears the Jonte-Paris inscription on the front (...).
