Title: Attachable pocket camera lens and bracket

Abstract: An adapter unit which mounts an auxiliary lens or filter in front of the lens of a pocket camera such as the Kodak Pocket 60 camera. The unit is formed of an L-shaped bracket fitted with a through slot in each leg of the bracket. One slot is fastened by a retaining screw to the tripod mount on the underside of the camera, with the other leg extending beyond the front and below the camera lens. A lens frame member is fastened to the leg projecting beyond the camera lens, to mount in a plane perpendicular to the camera lens axis in front of the camera lens. The lens frame member is formed with slots on the interior edges of the frame members for retaining a lens, filter or other lens accessory, with the rim of the top lens frame member hingeable to permit sliding of such lens accessory into or out of the lens frame.
