Description from the seller

Halina AI Twin-Lens Reflex (TLR) Camera – Fully Functional – Vintage 1950s – With Original Leather Case

This is a classic Halina AI Twin-Lens Reflex camera, produced by Haking Industries in the 1950s–1960s. A beautiful example of mid-century photographic design, this medium format camera uses 120 film and produces square 6x6 images.

The camera is fully functional. The shutter fires correctly at different speeds, the aperture operates smoothly, and the focus mechanism works as intended. The lenses are clean and clear, with no visible fungus or major scratches.

Features:
• Twin-lens reflex (TLR) design
• Uses 120 medium format film
• Produces 6x6 cm square negatives
• Manual focus
• Mechanical shutter
• Original brown leather case included

Cosmetically, the camera is in very good vintage condition, with minor signs of age consistent with its era. The chrome and leatherette are well preserved, making it both a functional camera and an attractive collector’s item.

A great piece for collectors, film photography enthusiasts, or anyone looking to experience classic medium format photography.
