The Lubitel is threaded for standard cables. But there is a catch. The original fabric sheathed cables originally supplied for the Lubitel had short probes-...

Ahem, sorry to ask this. Are there still moderators around here, being able to ban spammers or to report the persistingly down photo section to yahoo? Martin L...
Sorry for replyign so late; been away for a while. Make sure you rotate the knob on the back so that you are looking through the red window for 6x4.5,...
Hey, you guys have a 6X4.5 mask? The guy I bought my from just super glued two strips of black construction paper inside the 6x6 frame to quote unquote, make...
I feel that gluing a mask on the film gate is not right. Having an alien material between film gate and film will push the film back from where its supposed...
Yeah, but it was no biggie. I just ripped the paper out, I'm more a fan of the square anyway. I did the same thing when I bought my Holga, even before taping...
There's a guy on ebay who sells them for $9.95, and $3 shipping with Buy It Now. http://search.ebay.com/lubitel-mask_W0QQfkrZ1QQfromZR8 By the way, the metal...
Just decided that after a month with a 1977 Canon AE-1 wanted something a bit different...so got a Lubitel 2 AND a Lubitel 166B from eBay.. Then after a quick...
I'm using a cable release for a Canon AE-1...and a Hanimex Flashgun on a PC-Sync socket, also from the AE-1.... Seem to work ok, shutter fires and flash fires...
and I have no idea how it works, what film it takes, what size pictures it takes etc. I paid £20 for this on Ebay, was that a good price or not? The condition...
... So why on earth did you buy it?!? ;-) A quick Google found this 166B manual: http://www.butkus.org/chinon/lubitel-166b/lubitel-166b.htm I'm sure there are...
I bought it because i have always wanted to get a medium format camera that takes great pictures and what better way to learn with a cheap but nice camera. i...
I think it’s great to experiment with new camera types, formats and films. Good for you. I paid a little less than that but it seems like fair price for a...
thanks for that note Katie. I am waiting for mine to get delivered and quite excited. Do you know where I get film for this camera? Also, is this format...
Hi, I've just bought a Lubitel 166B on ebay and I want to take some pictures using flash. I've got a very basic flash unit that I used when I got my 35mm slr...
No problem. If you head to Jessops (a larger of their stores) they normally have 120 film lying behind the counter gathering dust. I've been buying Ilford B&W...
I'm not advertising Jessops of coarse - there are many others stores that stock roll film and eBay itself has many sellers. I would find a local camera store...
ahh thanks Katie. Good to know you are not a professional blogger that has been installed on this group to inadvertently promote Jessops ;-) thanks for the...
thanks Robbie - do you own calmutphoto.com by any chance? ;-) just kidding - i prefer to buy online so perhaps I will try them instead. many thanks Wayne ... ...
Wayne: I hope you don't mind that I cut in front of Katie to address your questions. First of all welcome to medium format. You should be able to buy 120 film...
Dear Baz, If your room is COMPLETELY dark, then yes, that would work. Be careful in the dark; make sure you don't accidently hit the lubitel with your elbow...
You need not do 'open-flash' firing to do flash photography with the 166B. Camera has a shutter sync'ed for X-flash. You will have to use flash with cord PC...
