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:

Notes

  3. Attributon to Tomioka: Lewis, p. 46.
  4. Lens, shutters and prices: Lewis, p. 46–7.
