Cameras[]
| Name | Type | Original camera |
| Centon DF 300 | 35mm SLR | Minolta X-300 or Minolta X-370s or Seagull DF-300 |
| Centon K100 | 35mm SLR | Not based on any camera but a design based on the Cosina CT-1 chassis. Definitely nothing like the Pentax K1000 which many people say this camera is based on. The CT-1 chassis was used for many budget cameras so the K100 has similarities to many other models as well as a number of shared parts. Other models include the Yashica FX-3, Nikon FM-10 and the Olympus OM2000 but there were many others. |
