This was a very early (1949) [[35mm]] camera from Chiyoda Kōgaku Seikō, later [[Minolta]]. The streamlined [[bakelite]] case was a distinctive feature, as was the bottom-mounted rapid wind lever, which originally was rather fragile plastic. The Rokkor 50mm / f4.5 lens is a triplet design.

This was a very early (1949) 35mm camera from Chiyoda Kōgaku Seikō, later Minolta. The streamlined bakelite case was a distinctive feature, as was the bottom-mounted rapid wind lever, which originally was rather fragile plastic. The Rokkor 50mm / f4.5 lens is a triplet design.
