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.

Notes

  1. The name is consistently written タチバナ in the advertisements.
  2. An advertisement published in the January 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".
