{{stub}} '''Owla Kōki K.K.''' (アウラ光機{{kabu}}) was probably a Japanese camera maker. The [[Owla Stereo]], made from 1956 to the early 1960s, is attributed to this company in various sources.<REF> {{Kokusan}}, p.376 (Owla Kōki K.K.), {{McKeown}}, p.770 ("Owla Koki"), {{Sugiyama}}, item 6037 ("Owla Optical Co."). </REF> This camera was first announced and advertised in 1956 as the [[Owla Stereo|Stereo Sankei]] by '''Sankei Kōki K.K.''' (サンケイ光機{{kabu}}),<REF> Advertisement reproduced in {{Kokusan}}, p.252. </REF> perhaps the earlier name of Owla Kōki. It is not known if Sankei Kōki is related to the magazine ''[[Sankei Camera]]'', in which appears the advertisement for the Stereo Sankei. One source attributes the camera to "A.O. Kōkensha" (エーオー光研社), for an unknown reason.<REF> Takasaki, p.22 of {{KKS}} no.49. </REF> Lenses called Owla are also known on cameras made by [[Tougodo|Toyohashi Tougodo]], for example the [[Stereo Hit]]. They were perhaps made by the Owla company. == Notes == <references /> == Bibliography == * {{Showa10}} * {{McKeown12}} * Shima Kazuya (島和也).
