Hi everyone,

Does anyone know what company this log is from? It's on a largeish shutter with an air driven lever. Settings are Z, M, 0.

Likely Seagull, China, or a counterfeit of the same.

Oh that is what that little thing on the bottom of the logo is...a G. And obviously the top part is a stylized seagull wings? Couldn't see it at first. Thanks. I got it with a pile of other stuff at a camera swap and wondered where it was made.

Keep in mind that in that time Chinese counterfeited other Chinese brands. It goes around and around again.

Interesting...thanks again for the info. You mentioned " in that time". What time would this be? The 1960s? I've read that's when Seagull was active first. Is that right?
