Fifteen or so of these had some kind of exposure meter. The Kodak Instamatic Reflex was made in Germany by Kodak AG and patterned on the 35mm Retina Reflexes. It had interchangeable (leaf shutter) lenses. A fantastic (and pricey) reference for obselete cameras is The Price Guide to Antique and Classic Cameras by James McKeown. 900+ pages of abbreviated history, illustrations and descriptions.
