This is a pocketable, small and lightweight aluminium half-frame camera, made in the late 1950s by one of the post-War Tōgōdō companies.

The camera shoots 72 frames on a roll of 36. The shutter system is patented, and is cocked by film transport. It has only 2 settings: 1/60 and B, where B is also used to activate the flash connection.

A fixed-focus 40mm f/8 Sankor lens is mounted, with 3 selectable stops: f/8, f/11 and f/16.
