Chronology of cameras Fex Indo
Very close in technical terms to the Ultra-Fex, the Delta distinguishes itself primarily by its presentation. The large grooves on the bodies of the Ultra-Fex have disappeared, and the bakelite is very smooth and beautiful (between us, it's easier to clean a Delta than an Ultra-Fex).
The front face, at the end of the extendable tube, has slightly curved. The viewfinder is smaller since the side reinforcements found on the Ultra-Fex are no longer present. Most of the time, on the Ultra-Fex, the accessory shoe was integrated with one of these reinforcements. The Delta no longer has it. Instead, you'll find either a double connection on the side of the tube, one ensuring the physical connection between the flash and the camera, and the other ensuring synchronization, or a simple side sync socket. In the latter case, the physical connection is ensured by a strip between the flash and the tripod nut.
The Delta brand was registered on March 15, 1955, in Lyon (No. 29,492) by Indo (SARL) at 12 Place Gailleton, Lyon.
Cet exemplaire du Fex Delta sans réglages, se distingue par ses boutons moletés sur un seul rang, alors qu’un autre exemplaire est usiné sur trois rangs !
Il semblerait qu'il s'agisse d'une évolution chronologique : on retrouve ces molettes à un rang sur de nombreux modèles de la marque : Sport-Fex, Ultra-Fex, Elite, sur des versions postérieures à 1955. Celles à trois étages semblent cependant moins répandues.
