The four possible lens/shutter combinations have been observed. The shutter was a Compur-Rapid or Synchro-Compur to 1/500. The lens was a fixed four element Schneider Xenar 1:2.8 f=45mm or three element Steinheil Cassar 1:2.8 f=45mm, both with front cell focusing. The Adox 300 had a fast-action winding lever around the lens, similar to the Tenax I, Tenax II or Konica III. Each magazine also had an exposure counter, with a corresponding window in the camera's top plate.
The hinged door had a window to show the magazine's dials.
The magazine had two reminder dials for the type of film and the DIN or ASA sensitivity. On the back of the Adox 300, there was a hinged door that closed over the magazine, opening the magazine's dark slide. Other examples were the Zeiss Ikon Contarex, some versions of the Zeiss Ikon Contaflex, the Rollei SL2000F and S元003, the Kodak Ektra, the Mamiya Magazine 35 and maybe some others. It was one of the few 35mm cameras to be equipped with interchangeable film magazines, allowing to change the emulsion in the middle of a roll. The Adox 300 was a 35mm camera made by the German company Adox and introduced in 1956.
