What it is
{"overview":"The Tokyo Kogaku Primo Junior is a Japanese-made twin-lens reflex camera using 4x4cm 127 roll film, produced in the late 1950s as a compact alternative to full-size 6x6 TLRs of the period. Because these are wholesale saleroom results rather than retail asking prices, dealer-listed examples typically sell for more, and condition of the taking lens, shutter and focusing screen will swing the value materially.","buying_guide":"Inspect the shutter at all speeds for sticking or capping, check the viewing and taking lenses for haze, fungus and separation, and confirm the focusing screen is clean and the helicoid moves smoothly.

Questions
Is the Primo Junior a good buy as a user camera?
It can be, provided the shutter and lenses check out, but the 4x4cm 127 format is now niche and film availability is the main practical constraint on regular use.
