Hansa Canon camera and Nippon Kogaku's Nikkor

Tokyo Meeting

Hansa Canon and Nikkor

Tokyo green is shining brightly across the over sky.
The Nikon Kenkyukai Tokyo was an enjoyable interesting meeting even today.
We studied the Nikkor lenses in the very early period.

The advertisement of the Japanese camera magazine on Hansa Canon first appears in Showa 10 (1935).
Nippon Kogaku was supplying the camera lenses to Seiki Kogaku Kogio(CANON INC.)
