With an aluminium and plastic body, this 120 medium format camera is often considered a "toy camera" probably due to the fact that most of these cameras were produced with a plastic lens. It was made by the Fuji Photo Film Co. from 1957 to 1963 and was released for sale exclusively in Japan, marketed as a beginners camera ~ easy enough that even "women and children" could use it - as the delightfully politically incorrect advertising of the time stated.

Sean, a fujipet fan has an excellent site dedicated to this camera with lots of information, links and example images:
