今月のカメラ-Cameras of the month

掲示板です、お気軽に書いてください。 Camera message board is ready!

Although I'm not into spring camera collection much,
I encounter some of them in the course of collecting.
Here are the ones you may interested in.
(back row from L to R)Aires Viceroy and Mine Six Super 66(with a Takumar lens)
(front row from L to R)Mamiya Six Automat, Ricoh Six and Super Fujica Six M

The AIRES Viceroy was the only folding camera Aires ever produced.
It was based on the Mine Six body shell with the Aires made range finder.
It was marketed in the sout east Asia only (and probably in Australia) and
until recently not well known even in Japan.

The Mine Six Super 66 was the last of the Mine Six line manufactured by Takane Kogaku.
The market trend then was towrd 35mm cameras and theyfound it difficult to
compete with larger makers and withdrew from camera production.

The Ricoh Six was procuced in the period their Ricohflex line was very popular.
The quantity of production must have been very small you don't see these often.
