Tamura Nisshindō (田村日進堂) was a Japanese company about which little is known. It reportedly advertised the Lion camera using the no-need-darkroom process in 1931.[1]
In May and July 1946, advertisements were placed in Ars Camera by a shop called Nisshindō (日進堂), selling cameras and photographic products in Nihonbashi, Tokyo.[2] It is not known if this was related to the 1931 company or not.
