The Lyra Six was a 6×6 folding camera, a copy of the Zeiss Ikon Ikonta. It was made by the Japanese company Fuji Kogaku.
A 1938 ad in an issue of Asahi Camera showed all the Lyra range and announced the Lyra Six with a choice of three lenses:
- f:4.5 lens for ¥72 (bad scan, prices hard to read)
- f:3.5 lens for ¥85
- f:2.9(?) lens for ¥105(?)
The case was not included in the price.
The Lyra Six also appeared in a 1938 price list of a dealer called Shinbi-Dō (眞美堂), offered with three lens variants:
- a f:2.9 lens, for ¥90
- a f:3.5 lens, for ¥72
- a f:4.5 lens, for ¥60
A version with body release was offered for a supplement.
A later variant of the Lyra Six has an optical finder contained in a top housing.
