Kyōto Seiki (certainly 京都精機) was perhaps a Japanese company in the 1940s. Sugiyama and McKeown say that it made the Flex Six 6×6 SLR camera and the Lovely, a subminiature taking 14×14mm exposures.[1] However the Flex Six is identical to the Shinkoflex which was certainly made by Shinkō Seiki.
The same sources attribute the Cine Vero to "Kyoto Precision Manufacturing" (a possible translation of the name Kyōto Seiki) but some details might indicate that it was made by Kinshō instead.[2]
