Kowa Six MM is the successor model to the first domestically produced 6x6cm leaf-shutter SLR camera, Kowa Six I, launched in 1968. Several improvements can be seen on Kowa Six MM such as the mirror-up machanism and the multiple-exposure system. And the fact is that "MM" was named after those improvements.
