Kongque 孔雀 120 Type I

The 孔雀 120 Type I by Kongque is a medium format box camera designed for 120 roll film. While the exact production year remains unknown, its simple construction featuring B and 1/60" shutter speeds indicates it was a budget-level consumer camera intended for straightforward photography. Weighing 435g, it represents a typical example of mid-20th century box camera design, focusing on affordability and ease of use over technical sophistication or premium materials. As with many cameras from lesser-known manufacturers, the Kongque brand likely served its domestic market with no-frills functionality rather than innovative features.
