Extremely Rare: CCCP Era BelOMO VILIA Soviet-Made Camera

【Unused/Deadstock】
BelOMO VILIA Вилия Old Soviet Camera

This is a compact camera manufactured by BelOMO of the former Soviet Union from 1973.
It is 【extremely rare】 because it has the CCCP logo on the front, and you rarely see one with so few scratches or stains.

This camera is made of plastic and is very light, with a simple construction, but it is a fully manual camera with manual shutter and aperture control.

There is no exposure meter.
The lens is a simple triplet, but it focuses by moving the entire lens group, not just the front element.

However, it has the essential features for a 35mm film camera, such as self-cocking and multiple exposure prevention.

Except for the lack of a rangefinder, it's like a plastic version of the FED2 (or FED ZARYA).

What's amazing about this model is that the viewfinder is very clear for its time, with an Albada bright frame, and the view is quite good.

The image quality is similar to that of Lomo or Smena 8M or Smena 35, and it's said to be "emo" (evocative).

　Lens: TRIPLET 69-3 40mm F4
　Shutter: Unnamed lens shutter B, 1/30 sec - 1/250 sec
　Winding: Lever type, single-stroke winding
　Rewinding: Crank rewind

Just to be clear, since it is old, we cannot guarantee its operation.
As it is listed as 【unused deadstock】, we have not checked it with film loaded. Please consider it as an antique camera from nearly 60 years ago.
I don't think anyone would buy it as a practical camera in the first place, but I think it's a camera that you'll almost never have the chance to get again, so please understand that before purchasing.
