Kamera Rebyū: Kurashikku Kamera Senka (カメラレビュー：クラシックカメラ専科, Camera review: A special course in classic cameras) is a Japanese quarterly devoted to classic cameras, published in Tokyo by Asahi Sonorama. Each issue has well over a hundred pages, few of which are used for advertising. The main area of interest is cameras from the 1920s to the 1960s. Although Leica and to a lesser extent Rollei cameras are predictably covered with a degree of attention that seems obsessive (and perhaps ludicrous), the magazine is otherwise fairly democratic, willing to devote entire articles to much less prestigious brands.
Every issue clearly announces its main subject of interest on the front cover, and this cover story accounts for a large percentage of the content. A less conspicuous cover story can also account for many pages: thus for example issue 23 has over sixty pages on vintage lenses and over twenty on Topcon leaf-shutter SLRs.
Kamera Rebyū: Kurashikku Kamera Senka started as a supplement to another periodical, Kamera Rebyū (Camera Review). Thus for example issue 8 of the former, published in autumn 1986, describes itself (conspicuously, on the front) as a separate issue (別冊, bessatsu), and (inconspicuously, on the back) as issue 45 of Kamera Rebyū. This parent periodical seems to have folded since then, and later issues do not mention being special issues of anything else.
Although the periodical has an English subtitle (Camera Review: All about Historical Cameras), its content is entirely in Japanese. Back issues are not only available from the publisher, they are also routinely stocked by camera stores in Japan.
