Description from the seller

Fascinating twin-lens reflex (TLR) camera, the Lomo Lubitel 2, produced in the USSR by LOMO (Leningradskoye Optiko-Mekhanicheskoye Obyedinenie). This model, an icon of Soviet analog photography, uses 120 medium format film producing 6x6 negatives.

The exemplar is in excellent cosmetic condition, complete with its original brown leather case and the original lens cap.

The Lubitel 2 is famous for its Triplet T-22 75mm f/4.5 lens, capable of giving images that vintage character and that light vignetting highly sought after by lomography enthusiasts.

Year of construction presumed: Approximately 1960–1970.

Mechanical condition: The mechanism has been finely tested and is fully functional in every part (shutter, film advance, diaphragms, and focusing).

Technical note: The camera has not been tested for film exposure performance.

Extra details: Clear lenses, waist-level finder that opens smoothly, and the case is intact with the original shoulder strap. An excellent piece both for use and for display in a collection.

Approximately 0.550 kg (body only, without case).

Approximately 0.800 kg (including leather case).

Dimensions (cm)
10 cm (width) x 10 cm (depth) x 13 cm (height with the viewfinder closed).

Height reaches about 18 cm with the waist-level finder open.

Color
Black (body) and Brown (case).

Shipping method
Tracked and insured shipping via express courier. The item will be packed with extreme care using protective materials (bubble wrap and double box) to ensure its integrity during transport.
