BelOMO plant, 1960-1970s
CHAIKA-2M 35mm FILM CAMERA'S BODY
Chajka = Seagull
ITEM'S CONDITION: AS-IS, FOR PARTS or REPAIR
The VF is clear and sharp.
The shutter work looks good except "B" speed, sometimes it does not works properly. I loaded old film and tested film winding, it worked properly.
Cosmetically the camera looks nice for around 50 years age, just examine item's photos, please.
You can use the camera for collection, for taking photos with available shutter speeds (just mount Industar-69 lens on it), for parts or you can try to repair the shutter.

* The lens is removable, it mounted by the M39 screw, which looks similar with LTM (Leica thread Mount), but You'll can change those lenses between Chika cameras only.
