The KOBICA 35 BC-1 is a leaf-shutter fixed-lens rangefinder introduced by Daehan Optical (Korea Optical) in 1976.[1] In some documents and images, it is also referred to as KOBICA 35 BC. This camera is said to be Korea's first completely domestic camera.
The manufacturer, Daehan Optical, introduced the technology from Mamiya in Japan. Therefore, this camera is similar to Mamiya's leaf shutter cameras like the Mamiya 35 Ruby.
