The Lomography Lubitel 166+ is an inexpensive multi-format TLR camera, and a recreation of the Soviet-era classic Lubitel camera. With a twin-lens design (one lens for viewing the scene and one for shooting it) and plastic body, this fully manual camera put pro-quality images within the reach of the Soviet public. Its name, meaning "Amateur" in Russian, reflected its simplicity. Several models of Lubitels were introduced until production ended in the mid 1990's.

The Lubitel 166+ is a twin lens reflex camera. A viewing lens on top looks at your subject while the 75mm f/4.5 taking lens on the bottom shoots them. In addition, this ''plus" model features a pop-up viewfinder with an improved perfectly flat ground glass, which covers 100% of the image. This way you can also use the camera for waist-level shooting.
