I've had my Lubi 166U for a couple of years now and I'd have to say it's my medium format camera of choice whenever I go out snapping - mainly because it...
Hi Robbie, At least with the second picture it is possible that you have an occasional lightleak somewhere, or: I donīt know the 166 models, only have a Lubi...
Hey Robbie, Good photos ether way. You have an abstract eye. As far as I am concerned with the flare. I don't see any need for the view finder hood? Have A Day...
Hi, this is a second post just in case the first one did not get through somehow, excuse me if I am boring you... How does one decrease vignetting on a lubitel...
That second photo doesn't look so much to me like flaring. It looks to me like you may have had some water on the front lens. Is this possible? Was it ...
... Yes, it does look like that, but I'm pretty sure there wasn't any water on the lens. You could be right though. ... Yes, I'm going to get one. For the...
OK, long time no see. I will post the pics from my slide sometime this weekend. Please take a look at the photo section at Book's folder. I am trying to take...
Hi folks, Here goes this fast review of my experience with that wonderful little black box, the gem of Cold War retro look, the Lubitel 166B. I've bought the...
... Well, lomography.com sure is not the best place on the Net to buy cameras. I think they just are trying to cover costs for all that fancy light design and...
I think that website has been around since 2002-3 or around that. I used to take a look at his website. He modified the Lubi to be a pin-hole camera and took...
I am new to the group - can I get some background info on a Lubitel- 166U model I just received from a friend that came back from overseas? The camera is new...
I think you speak for all of us. Lubitels produce output way better than cameras costing ten, twenty times the price, and all they ask is patience. They...
... You need to cut and paste the "166.htm" onto the end of the line above and paste that into your browser: the link got wrapped over two lines in the...
Hi guys I have just joined your group and I am looking forward to talking to you all. I will be receiving my lubitel camera very soon and I am really looking...
- Hi Lynn, Welcome, I am sure you will enjoy your Lubitel. Which one did you get. I have the Lubitel Universel. If your directions or users manual is in...
Hi Everyone in Our Group, I've been tring to figure out what size filtefrs I need to fit my Lubitel U. What would be the size I need in mm or inches? Is there ...
... You'll need 40.5mm filters. ... I got a couple of red filters from a German store selling via eBay. I'm sure if you just search for 40.5mm filters there...
Warren, 40.5mm filters fit the Lubitel 166U. This is a common size and fits many many Russian normal lenses. That's because it's an even older German filter...
Thanks, Robbie. I will do e-bay thing most likely or a web search for a carryer now that I know the size and thak you for the comment also that the hood size...
What settings would you recomend (166-U) to take photos on a sunny day around 15-20 feet from the subject? Possible some tree shade so I will say broken sunny...
If you've got 100 ASA negative film in, try between f16 at 1/125 (good ole "Sunny 16" rule)and f11 at 1/60. If you're shooting slides your expo must be spot...
Hi Warren, I doubt if the filters were 2mm in diameter. There are 25.4 mm to the inch approximately, so 2mm is actually less than a 1/12th of an inch (yes,...
From the picture I posted in the Book's folder 'boss', I believed I underexposed it and it has more vignet on the image. Do you guys think that underexposing...
Well the vignetting is not so clearly visible to me, frankly I donīt know how the illumination of the room was. At least your idea is right by tendency IMHO,...
Sometimes my own idiocy amazes even me, and you'd think I'd be used to it by now. Yesterday I sat down to get some specs off the inside of the lens of a 166U....
