The Mihamaflex is a Japanese 6×6 TLR. The brand name "Mihama" exists in Spring Camera and 35mm leaf-shutter rangefinder, but it is not clear if this model is a product of the same manufacturer.
General description
The existence of the Mihamaflex was described in some of the documents, but in reality, the only sources were an advertisement in the Camera Friend October 1954 and an article in "Photo Art rinji zōkan no.69"[1]. And the illustration in "Photo Art rinji zōkan no.69" was taken from the advertisement. In the illustration, the camera is depicted as a Rolleiflex-like form. Specifically, the wheels on the left and right sides of the lens are used to set the shutter speeds and diaphragm.

The actual Mihamaflex does not have such a form. The shutter speed and diaphragm are set by the shutter unit itself.
The shutter is unmarked (B, 1–300). It has front-standard focusing operated by a wheel on the side of the body. Uses a red window for film advance counter.
