Walter Zapp - Putting a camera in every spy’s pocket



Walter Zapp invented the world’s first high resolution mini camera. The VEF Minox (17 x 27 x 80mm, 125 g) was first produced in 1937 in the Riga VEF factory. It made fine resolution photocopies of detailed documents without losing detail when enlarged. In 2005, to celebrate Walter Zapp’s 100th birthday, MIN OX presented a Special Edition of this legendary spy camera. Miniature cameras in the 8×11 film format are still today being made by hand in Wetzlar, Germany.
