The '''Tsubasa Nettar''' (ツバサネッター) is a [[Japanese 4.5×6 folders|Japanese 4.5×6 folder]] made by the company [[Optochrom]] in 1940. It has a horizontal folding body with struts similar to the [[Ikonta A]] by [[Zeiss Ikon]]. The name "Nettar" itself is of course an allusion to the [[Nettar]] also made by Zeiss Ikon.
 
 
 
The Tsubasa Nettar has an advance knob on the bottom right of the body. There is a folding optical finder on the center of the top plate, a body release on the right and the folding bed opening button on the left.
 
 
 
It is advertised in 1940<REF> {{Showa10ad|Tsubasa Nettar and Tsubasa Super Semi|151|October 1940|Asahi Camera}} </REF> together with the [[Tsubasa Super Semi]]. The shutter has 1&ndash;300 speeds and is called ''kurakkusu'' (クラツクス) in ''katakana''. There is a choice of two lenses both called Erinar, with f:4.5 or f:3.5 aperture, but no price is indicated. The advertisement shows a ''TSUBASA NETTAR'' logo, that is probably engraved in the folding struts.
 
 
 
The Tsubasa Nettar was short lived, and no example has been observed yet. It was followed by the upgraded [[Tsubasa Kiko III]].
