Acura made photo cameras?
I just had this come in the mail. The lettering is the same as the vehicle lettering.
I tried to find anything on this product with no luck. Any help with finding its origin? It was made in Japan, I’m guessing the mid 80s.

"Accura" was a 1960s/1970s distributor trade name used on a variety of Japanese 35mm lenses, accessories and at least one twin lens reflex camera. Accura was also a line of Olympus cameras in the 1990s.
The branding here was likely an attempt to ride off the name, not that Accura was all that well known. These chintzy plastic SLR-like cameras ("dual viewfinder," lol) were sold under pretty much any name they could think of.

^ Speaking of which...
Are referring to the eventual Rotrex install on your new 6MT...?
I kid...I kid...
