In 1951 (Showa 26), Chiyoda Kogaku Seiko, later MINOLTA, released the MINOLTA SEMI P, a spring-loaded medium format camera with a CHIYOKO PROMAR 75mm F3.5 lens. In the 1950s, it was a popular spring camera along with twin-lens reflex cameras. At the time, contact prints (straight prints) were the mainstream, but later the 35mm single-lens reflex era began, and enlarged prints became the mainstream. Contact prints benefited from larger film sizes, making medium format cameras a must. While there is some age-related deterioration, there are few scratches and no dents. The lens also has very few scratches, and almost no dust or mold. The camera has been tested and cleaned before being put up for sale. The sample photos were taken by removing the lens from one of the two cameras. The color and resolution are considered high for the time. Since it is a digital camera, the photos will appear about twice as large and wider in the actual film. This camera contributed to the development of Minolta. Thank you for your consideration.
