About This Piece
FED cameras are among the best-known Soviet rangefinders and are valued by film photographers and collectors for their all-metal build. The Industar-61 lens is a familiar match for the line. Having the case, clamp and calculator together makes the lot more complete than a bare body, and the accessories show how photographers worked with the camera in the field.
