Maria Butina - Film Photography Buff?

I noticed this camera in her twitter profile photo.
As an alleged spy I would have expected her to use something smaller.

What camera is she holding?

PS: Mods, move to FSU Cameras if appropriate. 🙂

Looks like a plastic 127 camera.

Looks like a DeMaria Lapierre w flash! I'd bet she's got her Minox tucked away......with gel.

Nah. Tessina. That's what REAL spies used.

Cheers,

She likes “high caliber” gear.

I yield to Roger that even more than a well hidden Minox, the Tessina in "strap-on" variety seems an appropriate tool both for Maria and her subjects at CPAC and NRA!

BTW, check location of company selling it. This is the region where most of FSU Canadians lives in Canada. My Ukrainian neighbors knows one ex-Russian couple who were taking into Canada because they claimed to know where CPSS gold is.
