AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Due to the termination of my collection: a Hongmei HM-1 folding camera in reasonably good condition for 6 x 6 cm photos, or using hinged masks, 4.5 x 6 cm on 120 roll film. The camera was made around ca. 1960 by Changzhou Camera Factory in Changzhou, East China and is a copy of the Seagull folding camera that was made not far away in Shanghai. The leaf shutter is synchronized for flash, even on units without a flash shoe. On most units (including this one) the factory name in Changzhou in Chinese characters is on the front plate of the shutter. Slutter: leaf shutter. Shutter speeds: B, 1/10 - 1/200. All shutter speeds are working. Lens: coated 75 mm f/4.5. The lens is clear and free of haze, fungus and separation. A camera in good condition and fully functional with signs of use. Photos are part of the description.
