US retailer Ritz Camera offered the Delta 2 RZ or D2-RZ in the late 1970s. It appears to be a rebadged Topcon RM 300 but with a distinctive "rugged" diamond-pattern covering. A Quantaray-branded 55mm f/1.7 lens was the standard lens, but numerous other K mount lenses can be attached. The vertically-traveling shutter permits a respectable 1/125 second flash sync speed, and there is a PC socket (originally capped) above the self-timer lever.
