一种新型照相机？不是。。。
照相机/镜头揭示了日本家族的一个秘密。你能够想象世界上杰出的两大照相机制造商一起来制造照相机吗？很难设想，如果那样的话，我们就能享受到通用卡口的好处，不必像现在所面临的痛苦选择。
如果由这两大巨人一起生产照相机会是怎样的？现在没这可能了，但在多年以前却有过这事。。。
看看这张照片，这是CANON第一架（可能不是，但肯定是第一架标有CANON标志）照相机，它是Hanzas Canon。但仔细看看镜头：
它是Nikkor!
为啥CANON会将其竞争对手的镜头装在自己的第一架相机上呢？事实是在半个世纪前，CANON和NIKON并不是竞争对手（我讨厌这类竞争也感染到了用户）。那时两家公司要合作生产质量好的照相机。
当时的宣传页是强调镜头的优越性，写道：“……其镜头由一流的光学设备制造商Nipppon Kogaku K.K（Nikon的前身）制造，这是（由日本制造）的第一支能够替代国外进口货的高质镜头。”
。。。。。。
不幸的是，NIKON当时并不生产机身。实际上当时也没有能使用NIKKOR镜头的日本照相机。于是一天，CANON找上了NIKON的门，求爱过程很短暂，1934年他俩结婚了，其结果就是你们所看到的：
1935年，日本第一台装备着Nikkor 50mm F3.5镜头的35mm照相机诞生了。CANON照相机使用NIKKOR镜头一直到1948年为止，那时NIKON自己生产了其第一台照相机NIKON 1。

A New Camera Model ? No...
Canon + Nikon = ?
The Camera / Lens that Reveals a Japanese Family SecretCan you imagine two of the world's leading camera-makers getting together to build a camera ? Hard to believe, we could have enjoy a universal lens mount by now and don't have to suffer like hell.
What about - if a hybrid model came from these two giants ?Not for now, but it happened many years ago...
Well, take a look at the camera in this photograph. It's the first Canon (May not be right, see another article on Canon's logo below - BUT it still remains as the first under the nametag, Canon), called the Hanzas Canon. But, take a closer look at the lens, that is:
It's a Nikkor !
Why would Canon choose a lens made by its rival for their first camera? The simple fact is, half a century ago, Canon and Nikon weren't rivals (I hate to see these kind of rivalry has been channeled to the users as well along the way). Back then, it took both companies to produce a quality camera.
A catalog of the time boasted of the superiority of the lens, saying: ".......it is produced by a leading optical device manufacturer, Nippon Kogaku K.K. (the original name of Nikon). This is the first lens (made in Japan) ever capable of replacing high quality foreign-made lenses. "
Frankly, as far as the know-how and the technological aspect of the lens design came from Europe. A legacy of lens- making technology left by Heinrich Acht, an engineer who came to Nikon from Germany in the 1920s - which enabled Kakuya Sunayama, the head of Nikon' s Design Departments to attempt to develop a camera lens. After innumerable trials, Mr. Sunayama finally succeeded in creating a high quality lens in 1932.
The company added an R to "Nikko": the Japanese abbreviation for Nippon Kogaku K.K.; and named it Nikkor.
Unfortunately, Nikon had not yet perfected a camera body. In fact, there was no Japanese camera that could compliment the NIKKOR lens. Then one day, Canon found its way to Nikon's door. The courtship was short and in 1934, the marriage was struck. The result you are seeing here:
The first Japanese 35mm camera, which was made in 1935, and its Nikkor 50mm F3.5 lens. NlKKOR lenses continued to be used in Canon cameras until 1948, when Nikon created its first camera, the Nikon 1.
