Shanghai TLR Camera made c.1963!
Features:
Shutter Speeds from 1/300 - 1 Second plus Bulb
Aperture Range from f/3.5 - f/22, with de-clicked stops
Classic rendering with the taking lens
‘Faster’ viewing lens for more accurate focus
Bright viewfinder, with a focusing loupe, and ‘sport’ mode built in, for most efficient shooting in all circumstances
Left-hand focusing knob with zone-focus scale
Not a ‘feature’, but this is a great low-cost entry into medium format film photography! Although it’s not a name brand by any means, it easily rivals the Yashica TLRs, and is oddly more convenient to use feature-wise :) Feel free to message us @kiwicamerasmith on Instagram/Facebook, or email us on kiwicamerasmith@gmail.com!
Overall Condition - It’s in great condition overall. All aspects function as intended, all speeds are accurate, etc. All knobs and levers are smooth most of the time, though if it gets left for a week or so, it occasionally gets slightly stiff; a small bit of use gets it moving freely again, and it doesn’t affect function regardless. The lenses are both entirely clear and have no fungus, etc. Leatherette has been reglued by us, though someis still slightly coming up on the very edges in places. We’ve also relubricated different parts of the camera to get everything running smoother when we initially received it.
