The Kodak Medalist is a high-quality (but bulky and heavy) medium format rangefinder camera making 8 6x9 exposures on 620 film. The Medalist was made in the U.S. by Kodak from 1941. The Kodak Medalist II is a post-WWII version adding flash sync but removing the self-timer and fine-focus knob due to the space occupied by the new flash socket and synchronizing mechanism. The camera was designed by Walter Dorwin Teague and Joe Mihalyi, at that time the partnership that produced most of the high-end
