HU: FED-11 ("Atlas")

[rxmd]

Hi,

200082249518 on the auction site has a FED-11, also known as "Atlas". 35mm rangefinder, leaf shutter with interchangeable lenses (!), coupled selenium meter. Comes with an Industar-61, the standard (and only) lens according to Princelle. It looks like a quirky camera. The seller writes that the self release doesn't work but that the camera is fine otherwise except for a slight misalignment of the rangefinder.

No connection to seller, even though we live in the same city 🙂

For some reason, I like the looks of the little Atlas. Looks like a [small] handful.

What a beast.
The lens/shutter arrangement looks like a werra.

Isn't it a half frame?

Isn't it a half frame?

Princelle says it's full frame, p. 110 in the second edition.

Kind of Kodak interchangeable lens mounting-ish. Does look like you need to wear a plad sports coat and hawiian shirt while using her.
