Lomo made this plastic-bodied Twin lens reflex medium format camera beginning circa 1980. It was a small revision to the 1976 Lubitel 166, adding a self-timer. Of its two lenses, one exposes the film, while the other is used for its viewfinder system. The Lubitel's viewfinder differs from most true TLRs, in that only a central circle is a ground-glass focusing aid; the periphery is transparent for brighter viewing, as with a brilliant finder.
The Lubitel 166B uses 120 roll film and exposes 6x6cm square images. Shutter speeds are from 1/250 to 1/15 and a bulb setting, aperture from f/4.5 to f/22, and the close-focus limit is at just over a meter.
