Sumida is a Japanese camera maker that was active in the early 1950s. Its full name is Sumida Optical Works (K.K. Sumida Kōki Seisakusho, 株式会社隅田光機製作所). Various Japanese websites tend to say that it is related to the prewar Proud company.
"Sumida" is the name of a river in Tokyo, and also of one of the 23 boroughs (区, ku, conventionally if misleadingly translated as "wards") of Tokyo.
