Leningradskoe Optiko Mechanichesckoe Objedinenie's (AKA LOMO/ЛОМО) medium format Lubitel 166B (export version) or Любитель 166B Twin Lens Reflex (TLR) camera that just fell into my lap unexpectedly. Still in pretty good condition. No strap, case or lens cap though.
A Russian camera made in the USSR
The camera is from around 1980 and is a revision version of the 1976 Lubitel 166. It uses 120 roll film and can expose 6x6cm square images. The camera could take up to 12 shots.
The Shutter speeds range from 1/250, 1/125/ 1/60, 1/30, 1/15 and bulb mode (open the shutter for as long as you want). The shutter is sync'd for flash with a PC socket on the lens barrel. Even has a cold shoe in the left side of the camera.
The lens is coated 75mm f/4.5 T-22 triplet lens with apertures down to f/22. The aperture choice range from f/22, f/16, f/11, f/8, f/5.6, and f/4.5. The close-focus limit is just over a metre - 1.4m. The viewfinder lens relative aperture is f/2.8.
The viewfinder lens (top) holds the focus scale and interacts with the bottom lens (main lens) which houses the shutter by gear-teeth around the edges. Twisting either barrel changes the focus of the main lens. The viewfinder also comes with a small magnifying glass which acts as a focusing magnifier.
The "ГОСТ" or GOST/ASA/DIN or ISO settings are on the right side of the camera which acts as a reminder of what film you have in the camera.
This is a good little TLR for beginners to TLR operation and photography :D
