Taiyd was already active as a camera distributor in early 1946. It was based in Tokyo, at the Jinbch crossing.[2] From 1948, its manufacturing branch Taiyd Kki K.K. (), often referred to as Taiyo-Do Koki, made the Meteor subminiature camera taking 17.5mm film, soon followed by the Vestkam, Epochs and Beauty 14, and by the Spy 16 and Beauty 16 using 16mm film. At about the same time, Taiyd was distributing the Gelto 34cm camera, the Semi Gelto and other Gelto products, and was using the Planet brand for various accessories.[3] Both the manufacturing and sales companies had an address in Jinbch (Tokyo); they would appear as separate companies until 1951.[4]

In mid-1950, the company released the first Beauty Six model. This camera was released later the same year as the Frank Six by Tsei Kki; it is not known if the production was transferred to Tsei or if it produced the camera from the start as a subcontractor of Taiyd. The Beautyflex TLR was released by Taiyd Kki in late 1950 or early 1951.

From 1952 or 1953, the sales company was merged into the manufacturing company Taiyd Kki K.K., and the factory was moved to Shimizuch,[5] the sales department remaining in Jinbch. In late 1953, the company released the second Beauty Six. (A very similar camera was later sold by Tougodo as the Toyoca Six; again it is not known if the camera was subcontracted to Tougodo from the start or if Tougodo bought the dies and toolings later.) In late 1954, Taiyd released the Reflex Beauty, a 66 SLR distantly inspired by the Reflex-Korelle. The bulk of the sales was provided by the TLR models, whose production continued in parallel. The company entered the 35mm camera market with the viewfinder-only Beauty 35 in mid 1955, followed by the rangefinder Beauty 35 Super then Beauty Canter 35.

However - alternative evidence suggests that Camera Taiyd was initially a simple shop selling mainly second hand cameras, and which opened in 1947. The advertisement placed by Taiyd in the January and July 1946 issues of Ars Camera (a magazine for amateur enthusiasts) actually translates as a call to sell and exchange cameras, and uses phrases such as "highest prices (paid)" and "exchange welcome". There are known examples of similar 1947 advertisements in local theatre programmes.

Whilst Camera Taiyd advertised Gelto Cameras from 1948, they did so as dealers not distributers. Indeed, some known advertisements, once translated, specifically state "Gelto Dealers". Other examples of early advertising include Canon and Nikon models, but none have assumed Camera Taiyd to have been distributers rather than dealers in Canon and Nikon cameras.

Much attention has been given to changes of address. Some of the superficially different addresses are actually one and the same. The shop entrance was on the front of the building facing the Jinbch Crossing, but the "Camera Taiyd Building" (as it is still known today) is a four-story facility, with separate entrances to the upper levels where early manufacturing of cameras took place (hence the spread of address numbers from 1 to 12). It is unlikely that the factory was moved to Shimizuch (note 8) as this is an area of town housing. The Nihonbashi address (note 9) would appear to be that of the distributer Hayashi Shokai Co Ltd. Other advertisements known from the time in Ars Camera and Asahi Camera (i.e. not re-publications) retain the Jinbch Crossing address.

Some (mainly Japanese Bloggers) doubt the claims of Lewis that Taiyd Koki became bankrupt in September 1957, but suspect they simply changed their name to match that of their core product (every model since the first sub-miniatures had been named using a variation of Beauty), in the same way as Canon or Nikon did - to name but a few. If Lewis is correct, Taiyd Koki is the ONLY 1950s Japanese Company to have survived bankruptcy, and did so with remarkable speed. But more than that, an article published by Taiyd in the 23rd March 1957 edition of "Army Times" described their plans for the manufacture and distribution of the new models and features (e.g. a focus on 35mm cameras, an f/2 lens, integral light metering), and these plans were fully delivered the following year, indicating no change of direction as one might expect of a company in need of reorganisation.

The last camera produced by the Beauty Camera Company was the 1963 Lightmatic SP. All trace of the company did not disappear after that date: Camera Taiyd remained in business, at the Jinbch Crossing, until 30th June 2013. Camera Taiyd is known to have had other shops at various times. Records are not clear but they once had a presence in the local airport and main hotel. There are five stores currently trading as Camera Taiyd, but like the original store, their focus is a face-to-face service to local footfall, and not Internet sales.

In the early sixties, japanese camera import to Europ was still very restricted, and the consumer market here knew only of german "general public" offerings : their lenses were less opened (2.8) and their look was not as modern as the japanese rangefinders of that time.


In France, general awareness of japanese gear was very limited and their reputation was still rather bad (things that you do not know, you cannot praise).


However in 1967, I took the risk and bought one of the first (and rare) Yashica Electro 35 that came to France (through "Tranchant Electronique" Co. as I remember), and was baffled that its lens (a "Tomioka" as it seems)... and besides, also its overall build quality and look outclassed my father's Zeiss !


Too bad that we only recently got the opportunity to "collect" these very good consumer cams. They should have deserved better availablility in these times.

Your results prove why there is such interest. An obscure yet nicely made camera with an outstanding lens. Your pictures highlight the excellent results this camera can produce and all accolades are justly deserved.

Louis, thanks for a considered and insightful comment...Hendrik, at the size and quality of the pics we're able to post here, any camera with a decent lens will produce good sharp images, which is both good and bad, as there's really no way of displaying the really good ones! And thanks Chuck, Steve, JDM, Mike and Rod for your usual kind responses.

This LightOmatic III camera is an addition to my collection of 35mm rangefinder cameras. It is a fixed lens camera from Japan and is firmly from the same stable as the Yashicas (Minister III and Minister D), Petri 7s, Taron Auto EE, Mamiya EE, Minolta Uniomat. There is a consistent feel about these Japanese rangefinders which makes them distinct from, say, the German fixed lens rangefinders from the likes of Voigtlnder.

Beauty started off as Taiyodo in Tokyo after WWII. Taiyodo became Beauty in 1957 and seems to have ceased trading around 1963. In that bare twenty years, they made around thirty five models of camera.

The top plate is fairly standard for a Japanese rangefinder. On the right is the film advance lever. This is cut from metal and appears to be aluminium, it moves through about 120 to advance the film one frame. This lever is not on a ratchet and must move in one throw. This film advance lever also doubles as a shutter lock. With the lever in its rest position, in line with the top plate, the shutter cannot be fired. To use the camera, you must first pull out the lever slightly. When you advance the film, the lever will return to the lock position which could become annoying.

The front of the camera has the shutter/lens assembly, as always. The shutter is a Copal-SV which is coupled to both the light meter and the rangefinder. Both the focus ring and the aperture ring have large plastic tabs on them to make adjusting them easy while the camera is at eye-level.

On the base of the camera, in line with the lens, is a standard (1/4 inch UNC thread) tripod socket. Also on the base is the button enable film rewind. This is better than with most cameras as there is no need to hold the button in once it is depressed which makes rewinding film much easier.

The back of the camera is opened by a sliding catch on the left hand end of the camera. The inside of the back has a central sprung pressure plate to keep the film flat over the film gate. Near the catch is a chromed leaf spring which keeps the film cassette secure. At the other end of the back is a chrome roller which helps to keep the film taut.
