The Selcaflex is a Japanese 6×6 TLR camera. It was perhaps made by a company called Kyōwa, as the markings on the camera seem to indicate.[1]
Description
The Selcaflex has externally geared lenses, with a focusing tab on the taking lens. There is a metal casing surrounding the two lenses, and the shutter release protrudes from this casing on the photographer's right.
The film advance is by a knob on the photographer's right and is controlled by a red window at the bottom of the back, protected by a vertically sliding cover. There is a depth-of-field table on the back, above the red window.
The viewing hood has a KSK logo on the front, and a loupe is hinged to its rear part. The name Selca flex is inscribed in a nameplate with a stepped border.
The lenses are Kyowa Selter 7.5cm f/3.5. The aperture scale is screwed to the front casing, under the taking lens, and it has a KYOWA CAMERA WORKS marking.
The shutter is a Selca, gives B, 1–200 speeds, has a self-timer and a PC synch post.[2]
The only surviving example observed so far is pictured here and here at Japan Family Camera, it is probably the same which is pictured here at Asacame.

The Selcaflex is not listed in Sugiyama nor in Kokusan kamera no rekishi.
