A variety of photo accessories—including lenses, remote shutter releases, and especially tripods—were distributed by the Japan-based Kenlock Corporation. Some of the tripods are co-branded Smith-Victor, a US manufacturer.
At least one 35mm SLR camera using K mount lenses was offered, the Kenlock KG-1, which outwardly appears to be a Cosina CT-1A. In addition to the KG-1 and Kenwood badging, a small crest emblem is printed below the rewind crank.
