About

The QRS Kamra (later sold as the De Vry Still Camera Model K-1) is an early 35mm camera. It was first made in 1928 by the QRS Company of Chicago, makers of player pianos and rolls for them.[1] QRS merged with De Vry in 1929, becoming the QRS-De Vry Corporation. The merged company did not last long, and David Tomei suggests the camera may have been discontinued quickly anyway, since De Vry concentrated on cine equipment.[1]
