Chronology of cameras Bronica 

M. Zenzaburo Yoshino, an industrialist from Japan1, aimed to create the best Japanese camera post-war by openly drawing inspiration from the proven techniques of Hasselblad. The first Zenza Bronica model, the Z, was introduced in 1958. In 1961, the D and S models were released.

The models continued to evolve until the early 2000s. They were single-lens reflex cameras with interchangeable lenses and backs. The early models featured a focal plane shutter, later replaced by models with a leaf shutter. They were available in 6 x 4.5 cm or 6 x 6 cm formats, using 120 film.
