Argus A User Manual page 11

One can see that the Argus A was very much a product of the times, and it was
once those times changed that the age of the Argus A ended.
All did not go well with Argus Cameras, Inc. after the demise of the A/A2 line.
Higher quality and cheaper cameras from West Germany and Japan began to flood the
market, and, as a result, the company started hemorrhaging money. Argus enjoyed only a
modest success with the C4/C44, which was intended to become the new workhorse of
the Argus line. Successive attempts to update the C3 were not well-received by the
consumer, who preferred the original to the updated models. The company was passed
around from owner to owner.
Argus is still around today (2004) and you can visit them on the internet at
"www.arguscamera.com". They produce an assortment of 35mm and digital cameras,
webcams, and digital video cameras. Unfortunately, they no longer offer the Argus A.
