The Fam

The Great Wall Plastic Co. replicated the Diana cameras with a wide array of names. One can only speculate as to the reasons behind this, but I'm sure is was just a marketing strategy of some sort. The following are some of the names that the Diana camera has been replicated under. I have also noted the amount of sightings that I have made of these cameras, along with they types of builds they were produced with (more on that in the section below).

Colorama De Luxe  
Conforama   Original  
Dana De Luxe  
Debonair twist focus variation
Marked model #809, this version has focus twists on barrel.
It is interesting in that this build shares qaulities of both the original and clone builds, but overall it is more like the original (same applies to traceflex and flocon)
Debonair (more recent version) Holga Variation
This model is very similar to the current day holga. The similarity is great.
Denhill Clone Similar to Rosco
Diana Original The one and only
Diana De Luxe De Luxe This is a 6x6 version that shares the likenesses of all the "De Luxe" models. I have yet to own one so I will not comment beyond that.
Diana F Flash -One version comes with flash attachment, one does not (model #162)
Dionne F2      
Dories Flash push-button
Point n' shoot
Clone
Model 204a is a clone build with a push-button shutter trigger. This model shares more likenesses to the clone build.
*UPDATE: have seen a couple of different versions of Dories now, quite common.
Elflex   De Luxe  
Flocon RF twist focus variation Fake barrel rangefinder light meter, focus twists on barrel (same as debonair and traceflex)
Gray Line Original  
Harrow De Luxe Twist focus variation The name "De Luxe" on this model is particularly interesting since previously it was only used to signify the 6x6 models, usually with the gray/silver bodies.
Hi-Flash Flash  
Justen      
Leader Specialized
De Luxe
Similar to Banner De Luxe
Lina Original
-"S" version
The "S" version also appears to be the original build
Likings De Luxe  
Mark L      
Mego Original  
Merit Clone All black
Micromatic De Luxe?  
NorthAmerican Original  
Olivia Unique This is the oddest variation of a Diana camera I have seen. It opens at the side and has twist barrel focus. It looks to be a 6x6 model. The shutter trigger is also interesting with an elongated plastic trigger.
Thanks to Juhani for sharing this unique model!
Photon De Luxe? It looks to me as though this model as well as the Micor-Matic may be a variation to the typical De Luxe model, I have yet to own one, so I can't comment beyond that.
Playtime Original Ooooh! Red!
Panax      
Pioneer      
Raleigh Original  
Rand Original -Bad source image, first letter may be an "S" or an "H"
*Update: found better source, turned out it said "Rand"
Reader's Digest Clone Usually in conjunction with other model names, the "Readers digest" is sometimes a sticker as a promo item (as seen on Anny camera)
Reliance      
Reader's Digest Clone Usually in conjunction with other model names, the "Readers digest" is sometimes a sticker as a promo item (as seen on Anny camera)
Rosko Clone Fake rangefinder light meter, fake hot shoe. Model # 140
Revue Clone (fake light meter) This is a very rare model, purchased in the U.K. by Jim Green. It is similar to the Flocon.
Samtoy Original Sighting in the U.K.
See   Clone - Holga version Identical to the Debonair Holga version.
Shakey's   Clone  
Sinomax   Original  
Snappy Original  
Stellar -Original
-Clone
 
Sunpet Unique This version is perhaps the most recent build of the Diana line. It improved in the moulding in the back to keep a tight film plane, but I think the F=70mm barrel is preventing vignetting, interesting because the manufacturer probably felt that this is a good thing, but we don't :(
Tammy 127 Unique (127) Very odd clone, for 127 film
Traceflex Twist focus variation Similar to Debonair
Tru-View Original  
Valiant Original  
Windsor -Original
-Clone
-Flash
-620 film
Most are the 120mm version, but watch out for the 620 (pain in the neck)
Zodiac   Clone

Bedfordflex


120 TLR's

Traveller
Bioflex
