The Topcon R |
The Topcon R was the first single lens reflex camera manufactured by Tokyo Kogaku. It was introduced in 1957 and was the first Japanese SLR with a semi-automatic diaphagm. A lovely example is displayed here with the Tokyo Kogaku 5.8cm f1.8 Auto Topcor lens. The Topcon R is the most frequently encountered early Topcon SLR however, pristine ones are getting rather uncommon.
