Revision as of 23:23, 6 May 2009
The FED 3 is based on the FED 2 and the dimensions of the two bodies are identical. The top deck is modified because the FED 3 has to have a shorter rangefinder base to make room for the slow-speed mechanism.
There are four models.
- FED 3a was introduced in 1961. It retained most of the FED 2 features, including the mushroom-shaped advance knob. The rewind knob is larger. The diopter is no longer adjusted by a lever but is adjusted by the ring over the viewfinder.
- FED 3b was introduced in 1963. It has a film advance lever and a flat top deck. It no longer has strap lugs. Usually fitted with an Industar 26 or Industar 61 lens.
- FED 3L was introduced along with the 3b in 1963, and has a body like the 3a but a different shutter speed knob. The shutter speed knob on a 3L resembles the ones on the FED 3b; the speeds are engraved on a plate beneath the knob instead of on the knob itself. The shutter speed plate is clipped where the top deck steps down. Usually fitted with an Industar 61 lens.
- FED 3L/D is a FED 3L with a multi-coated Industar 61 L/D containing Lanthane.
