Hi Warren, This is a very good church picture and thanks for sharing. I am not absolutely sure on this, but it seems that the yahoo system has problems with...
Hello everyone. I have just bought a 166 Universal off Ebay (where else these days ??? <VBG>) but it has lost it's case (if there ever was one), it's strap,...
Hullo Tony The strap can be anything which fit through the rectangular metal thingies attached to the camera's lugs. Choose one from your camera store or make...
Hi Tony, I actually think the charm of the Lubitel is it's 6x6 square pictures, interested to hear that you've got a cosmic 35......ebay has also been my...
Hello Jay, and thanks to you too for replying. I have an old plastic strap from a Yashica camera that I used to have that should fit, though I may yet treat...

Good evening Lubilites! My name is Amelia and I live in Sydney, Australia. I have been a lurker here for a while largely because my two lubitels (166b & ...
Hello Amelia, If you lift the viewfinder hood up, you should be able to press on the part that same "Lumo" and thus cause it to pivot downwards. Push it far...

Sorry Robbie, but I took the message to mean that Amelia just wanted to get going in as easy a manner as possible! How about it Amelia? Tony. ... From: "Robert...
Hi Amelia You could focus using one of two possible methods. First is to focus according to how the camera is designed. There is a little focusing spot ground...
Not at all, Tony. Another box which you should look at is the Agfa/Ansco Cadet B2 series. These were from the 1930s-40s. These were cardboard/wood/with some...
