About

The Egorette (エゴレット) is a Japanese camera taking 4.5×6cm film plates. It is only known from an advertisement in the June 1932 issue of Asahi Camera, placed by the maker Yamamoto Shashinki Kōsakusho. In this document, the name is written in katakana script only; the Roman name "Egorette" is hypothetical, and "Egolette" would be plausible as well. No picture of the camera is known, and no example seems to have surfaced so far.
