Tachibana Shōkai (タチバナ商会)[1] is a Japanese company that made[2] and sold a series of cameras called Pilot in the late 1930s and early 1940s, with the Baby Pilot 3×4 folder, the Pilot Six 6×6 folder and the Pilot Ref pseudo TLR in 3×4 and 4×4 versions. A Pilot field camera is also reported in this page at ksmt.com.

Notes

  1. The name is consistently written タチバナ in the advertisements.
  2. Advertisements published in the January and September 1941 issue of Asahi Camera and reproduced in Kokusan kamera no rekishi, p. 83, confirms that Tachibana was the maker of the Pilot cameras: "パイロツト写真用品製造発売元".
