Did you know that the Compass was the result of a bet in which Lord Noel Pemberton Billing boasted he could create a camera that could fit inside a cigarette packet?

After years of development, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Manufacture brought out the Compass which featured an exposure meter, range finder, EV indicator, angle viewfinder, telescopic lens shade, inbuilt filters, and a device for panoramic and stereoscopic views.
