All Walz TLR cameras had Nitto Kogaku lenses
-S-Kominar 3.5/75 four elements, a Tessar copy
probably or a Kominar 3.5/75 three elements, - and the
exception is the rare Metered Walzflex with Walzer
3.5/75 lens, this is identical to the American "Sears
Tower 65" that Walz made for Sears Tower; it seems
Walz decided to sell some "Sears Tower 65" that had in
stock to deliver to Sears Tower using their own brand
name for some reason, some business problem with Sears
Tower, anyway I assume that the Walzer 3.5/75 is also
an S-Kominar made by Nitto Kogaku because Walz did not
manufacture lenses:
