The cover folds down to expose the camera lens - this front cover can be detached and has a spring-controlled wire frame that holds the instruction manual in place. The camera itself folds out from the plastic casing - the viewfinder and focus calculator folds up on a hinge and clicks into place with a magnet; the lens extends out on fabric bellows and is released by pulling the lever numbered “1” up - the bellows can be retracted by pressing down on the crossbar; the back panel can open by sliding a small lever on the bottom.

Housed in a cardboard box with several scratched out things written on the lid - only “staples” is legible. The tool could be used to preview slides/negatives by placing them on the translucent window and placing the tool underneath a direct light source such as a lamp. Alternatively, the tool could be used as a precise light focus magnifier during photograph development/enlargement.
