Coronet · UK · 1940–1944 (4 years) · 135 film

The BoBox was a 35mm camera manufactured by Coronet between 1940 and 1944 during World War II. As a budget camera, it likely positioned itself as an affordable option for amateur photographers during a period when manufacturing resources were constrained by wartime limitations. Its name and design suggest simplicity and utilitarianism, focusing on basic functionality rather than advanced features or premium construction. Coronet managed to continue production despite the challenges of the war years, though few specific details about its technical specifications or innovations survive today.
