Chronology of cameras Asahi Bussan 

Starting from late 1934, Asahi Bussan introduced the Olympic B, an evolution of the Olympic A.
The viewfinder became optical, and the shutter was enhanced to provide calibrated exposure times of 1/25th and 1/50th of a second, in addition to the B (bulb) mode.
The lens, consisting of three lenses in two groups and with an aperture of f/6.3, now featured a real diaphragm with blades.
