Lubitel 2 Medium Format TLR with T-22 75mm f/4.5
Lubitel 2 Medium Format TLR with T-22 75mm f/4.5 - Good Condition | Classic Soviet Twin-Lens Reflex with Distinctive Lo-Fi Character
The Lubitel 2 is a charming and iconic Soviet-era medium format Twin-Lens Reflex camera that has earned a devoted following among film photographers worldwide for its distinctive lo-fi character and surprisingly capable image quality. Produced by LOMO in Leningrad, the Lubitel 2 — whose name means "amateur" in Russian — was designed to bring medium format photography to the masses, and its simple yet effective construction delivers a uniquely personal shooting experience that modern cameras simply cannot replicate. The T-22 75mm f/4.5 taking lens produces images with a characteristic softness and vignetting wide open that many photographers find deeply appealing — results that are unmistakably Lubitel. Serial number (lens): SR 021745.
Key Features
- Medium format Twin-Lens Reflex — 6x6 format on 120 film
- T-22 75mm f/4.5 taking lens with distinctive lo-fi rendering character
- Waist-level viewfinder for a unique and considered shooting experience
- Simple and intuitive controls — ideal for beginners and creative photographers alike
- Characteristic softness and vignetting wide open — unique creative rendering
- Compact and lightweight for a medium format camera
- A genuine piece of Soviet photographic history
Condition Report
- Body: Good condition — light marks consistent with age and use, no cracks or damage to housing
- Optics: Both viewing and taking lens elements clean and clear — no fungus, haze, or significant dust
- Mechanics: Shutter fires across available speeds; film transport and wind mechanism operating smoothly; focus mechanism operates as expected
"The Lubitel 2 is one of those cameras that divides opinion — and that's exactly what makes it interesting. It's not precise, it's not perfect, and that's entirely the point. The T-22 lens has a rendering quality that is completely its own — dreamy, characterful, and impossible to replicate digitally. For creative film photographers who want something genuinely different, this is a wonderful find."
