The Turist (Турист) was a strut folding camera with a rectangular bakelite body. It was made in the USSR. It belonged to the three main camera products of the soviet market in 1936 (ten year after soviet camera industry started) which were the strut folder Turist, the folding-bed camera Fotokor No. 1, and as top product the 35mm rangefinder camera FED. In the same year the first series of prototypes of the Sport 35mm SLR camera were ready. That camera still needed some refinement until its production in 1937. So the Turist is the low end soviet camera product of its time, whilst the high-end products aleady reached for the new 35mm camera market.
