Okaya Opticalworks Lord IVA
The Okaya Opticalworks Lord IVA is a Japanese-made 35mm film camera from the post-war era of compact rangefinder and viewfinder cameras produced by smaller Japanese optical makers. It sat in the budget tier of its day, aimed at amateur users rather than professionals.
Sales data for the Lord IVA is thin, but at recent UK auction a verified hammer result of £50 (August 2025) gives the only firm reference point for what one is worth today. That figure reflects the wholesale saleroom level for a lesser-known Japanese viewfinder camera, and retail or dealer asking prices in 2026 will typically sit above this.
