Yashima Flex
The Yashima Flex was a 6×6 TLR made by Yashima Kogaku Seiki in 1953/54, and advertised as color photography camera with a flash synchronized shutter with self-timer. It had film-advance by knob and an aperture setting knob, both, seen from the back, on the right side.
The ad with price shows the two modes of the viewfinder hood. In the 2nd mode the hood itself serves as sports finder. image by Chasing Classic Cameras with Chris (Image rights) |
