Soviet Cameras 2 - FED-2

[Camera - 35mm - Rangefinder]

The FED-2 is an elegant camera, and very comfortable to use. The rangefinder has a very wide base and good precision, but by no means like the Leica M series ones.

This particular camera is fitted with a ultra wide angle, flat field, Russar MR3 20mm F5.6. For me, this combination is a killer. The shutter speed range lacks the "low" speeds from 1s to 1/15s.

In my opinion, the FED-2 is maybe the most interesting of all Soviet "Leica-like" cameras. It has a very good grip, incredibly tough and even having just the "high" speeds, it's my first choice.
