Template:127 Japan The Tsubasa Spring Camera was a vertical style folding camera using 127 film, made by the Japanese company Optochrome.
It appeared in a 1938 ad (appeared in 9/1938 issue of Asahi Camera, visible at this page). It was offered with a Tsubasa shutter. Speeds were maybe T-B-25-50-100 (barely readable). The lens was f/4.5, maybe named Lucomar (barely readable, but this name has been observed on other Optochrome cameras). The price was 34 yen. The case was sold for 6 yen. Another unidentifiable accessory was sold 15 yen. On the ad's picture, we can see an optical viewfinder enclosed in a top housing. According to the viewfinder's aspect, much similar to the Tsubasa Chrome, the camera was probably dual format, for both 4x6.5cm and 3x4cm pictures. The shutter plate was marked NEW GOLD at the bottom, and probably TSUBASA at the top.
