Review: Lomography’s Lubitel 166+, Hands Down My Favorite Camera!
written by sandravo on 2013-06-13 #gearAt first I was afraid my urge to buy the Lubitel 166+ wasn't more than another breakout of GAS. Honestly, I was convinced that it would end up next to its older brother, a vintage Lubitel 2, sitting on the shelf looking pretty, but mostly just gathering dust. Turns out I couldn't have been more wrong!

Lubitel 2: A Lubitel 166+ Minus 164
written by brandkow93 on 2012-05-14 #gearA much cheaper version of the Lubitel 166+ and in my opinion, just as good. A TLR which I feel is very underrated in the Lomography community and in the whole photography community. It has a nice bright waist level finder, sharp T-22 75mm f./4.5 lens, and very easy to use fully manual controls.
