Lubitel 166B

This is probably my favorite camera. It is a cheap, plastic toy camera from the Ukraine made by
the Lomo company until the 1980's. It has a glass lens and uses medium format 120 film just like
a Rollieflex or Yahsica Mat, but it only costs around $40. It takes great pictures too. It is a
great way to get into TLR photography without spending a lot of money. Below are a few examples of
what it can do.

Nikon D70 ,Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D AF
1/250s f/16.0 at 85.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Strange you spotted my PaD Bob, because it was this shot that made me get the Petri out.
