The Proud or Proud DC is a Japanese 6.5×9cm folding plate camera[1], certainly made by the Proud company.
A folding plate camera, apparently in 6.5×9cm format, has been observed with a plate holder sporting the Proud logo, that maybe identifies it as a Proud plate folder. It had a Rulex shutter by Neumann & Heilemann giving 1–200, B, T speeds, and a Corygon 10.5cm f:4.5 lens. There was a brilliant finder, a folding frame finder and a small wheel for focusing at the right of the folding bed.
The lens and shutter combinations mentioned in the literature are the following:
- Radionar f/4.5 lens by Schneider, Vario shutter[2];
- Lauser f/4.5 lens by Tomioka[3], Rulex shutter;
- Lauser f/4.5 lens, Compur shutter (¥86 in 1934);
- Corygon f/4.5 lens by Friedrich, Compur shutter (¥85 in 1934).[4]
