This is a work in progress.
Two different Japanese 6×6 TLR cameras were called Starflex. These two are probably unrelated, and very few information is available about them.
Wartime Starflex
The wartime Starflex is a 6×6 TLR with automatic stop film advance. The focusing is done by moving the front plate back and forth. The focusing and advance knobs are on the photographer's right, and there is a round exposure counter window at the top of the right-hand side plate. The focusing knob is surrounded by a depth-of-field plate. The nameplate has a stepped frame and in inscribed STARFLEX and something else in smaller letters.
Postwar Starflex
