Camera (Japanese magazine)

Camera (Japanese magazine)

("Arusu") when in "katakana."]

The first issue of "Ars Camera" is dated April 1921: predating "Asahi Camera" by five years. With a mixture of photographs, material about cameras, and contests, it set a pattern for mainstream camera magazines that has continued to the present day. [Shirayama, "Nihon no shashin/kamera zasshi".] It managed to keep publishing despite the Tokyo earthquake of 1923, but from January 1941 was forced to merge with "Shashin Salon" nihongo2|写真サロン, "Shashin Saron") and "Camera Club" (nihongo2|カメラ倶楽部, "Kamera Kurabu") to form "Shashin Bunka" (nihongo2|写真文化).

"Camera" was quick to reemerge after the war, with an issue dated January 1946. For some years it was edited by Kineo Kuwabara. Its last issue was dated August 1956.
