The Kenko 35 (ケンコー35) is a Japanese camera announced in 1949 by the distributor Murakami Shōkai, and about which very few is known.
The Kenko 35 reportedly takes fourteen 3.5×4cm exposures on 127 film or eighteen 25×36mm exposures on 35mm film.[1] It was announced with a synchronized focal plane shutter giving T, B, 1–700 speeds, and a collapsible Nikkor 50/3.5 lens.[2]
The camera was advertised in Japanese magazines dated February 1949 and featured in the December 1949 issue of Photo Art (about Japanese cameras).[3] No surviving example is known, and it is not sure that the camera was effectively sold.
