Toyoca-44

Toyoca-44 TLR camera
This tidy little TLR camera would have been made by Tougodo of Japan at the tail-end of the fifties.

The camera takes 127 roll-film, and has an automatic film advance mechanism with a frame counter on the right-hand side of the body.

The taking lens is a Kinokkor 6cm f/3.5 in a Citizen-MV shutter. The viewing lens is engraved "View Kinokkor", and it is also 6cm and f/3.5

The viewing hood has the usual fold-down flap for use as a 'sports finder', and a hinged magnifier for close inspection of the image on the ground-glass.
