An article in the October 1957 issue of Shashin Kōgyō is reportedly titled "Stereo Camera Owla II" this perhaps indicates that the second model was released in 1957 and called Owla Stereo II.

The second model of the Owla Stereo is immediately recognized by the position of the focus control. The focus knob placed between the two lenses is replaced by a wheel placed under the lens casing in the middle. The distance scale appears in a small crescent-shaped window on the top housing, above the viewfinder window. The space between the two lenses now has a triangular DDD logo. The rewind knob is different and contains a film reminder.

The rectangular chrome plate attached to the front of the body has disappeared, and is replaced by a black part protruding from the main body above the lens casing, and a smaller chrome plate below. The F/X selector and the single synch socket have been replaced by two separate PC sockets under the right-hand lens.

Some changes are visible inside the camera: the position of the sprocket wheel and the shape of the guide rails are different, and the spring for the film magazine has disappeared. It is also said that the second model has a bubble level inside the viewfinder; it is not known if this feature was already present on the first model.
