The '''Rondine''' is a box camera made by [[Ferrania]], Italy, in 1948. Its name means ''Swallow'' in italian. It has an all metal body, covered with leatherette (black, green, blue, red and burgundy have been observed). Two finders: a prism reflex finder centered above the taking lens and a folding framefinder/sportsfinder on top of the camera. The Rondine has a Linear 7,5 cm/8.8 lens and takes 4&times;6.5 pictures on [[127]] film. The mensicus type lens can be zone focused. Simple shutter with single speed: 1/75s. The Rondine has a flash contact. The right side of the camera with the winding knob can be taken out to load the film. An unusual solution.
