Belomo offered this compact, plastic, 35mm half-frame camera beginning around 1984. It included a 28mm f/2.8 lens
The inner ring surrounding the lens is the film speed scale, which on some models may use DIN or the Soviet GOST numbering system. However the camera is meterless, and this simply moves a indicator relative to the outer ring of weather symbols. Choosing one of these appropriate to the scene selects an aperture opening: this in turn varies the shutter speed in quasi-programmed operation. At f/2.8 the shutter is set to 1/60 sec; while at f/16 it reduces to 1/250 sec.
