AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Up for auction is a celebrated and fascinating Soviet medium-format twin-lens reflex camera: the Lubitel 2, produced in Leningrad by the historic LOMO plants between 1954 and 1980. This iconic device uses the 6x6 cm format on 120 roll film and is distinguished by its very light black Bakelite body and the foldable top-viewfinder hood. Equipped with the T-22 75mm f/4.5 taking lens, it is famous for its characteristic external gear coupling that allows simultaneous focusing.

The lot is presented in good overall condition, with normal signs of use visible in the photographs, and is fully functional, complete with its original black faux-leather protective case.

Optics: The taking lens T-22 75mm f/4.5 and the upper viewfinder lens show overall good condition. Please note localized dirt under the inner upper glass of the waist-level viewfinder, as is common for devices of this era.

Mechanical: Tested and working. The fully mechanical shutter fires regularly at the various speeds, the winding lever responds correctly to commands, and the manual film-advance mechanism is operable.

Aesthetics: Good overall condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The black Bakelite body is well preserved, without cracks or structural breaks. The front metal plaque with the cursive inscription
