About

The SCAT all metal camera was made by Italian manufacturer Società Construzioni Articoli Tecnici in Rome, from 1947 until the early 1950s. It makes 8x11mm images on 16mm film, wound from a supply cassette to a take-up one. Mistermondo shows four examples of the camera.[1] The earliest (serial no. 333) has a sliding control (on the bottom, if the film advance knob is on the top, as shown here), with positions marked '1', '2' and '3'. This selects between three fixed apertures in a sliding plate.
