What is the SEAGULL?
Born in Shanghai, China in the 1960s, this camera was well known until the late 1980s.
The most representative of these is the 4A series, which is mainly used for shooting in our exhibited works. When the first “Seagull Exhibition” was held at Shinjuku GANKA Gallery in 2007, the production lines of “SEAGULL” as European model for overseas has been remained in Shanghai, China. The sales system (A-Power Inc.) has been secured in Japan as well.
If the reason for popular in China until the 1980s was reasonable price caused of making crudely, the reason for popular among some silver halide camera fans in Japan is adoption of the KANJI emblem on the SEAGULL, which is rare in the camera world.
