Nippon Camera

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nippon Camera (日本カメラ, Nippon kamera) is a Japanese photography magazine, which has been published from 1950 until the present (2006).

It started in March 1950 as a bimonthly magazine, published by Kōgeisha (Tokyo) as the successor to the book series Amachua Shashin Sōsho (1948–9). It became a monthly magazine from July 1951. The magazine is now published by Nippon Camera-sha (Tokyo), which also publishes an annual, Shashin Nenkan (写真年鑑), the annually revised practical encyclopedia Gendai shashin no jiten (現代写真の事典), and other photography-related books.

Since the demise of Camera Mainichi, its sole rival as a photography magazine attempting to cater to all tastes has been Asahi Camera.
