Fed-2 35mm FILM CAMERA instruction manual
This text is NOT identical to the one in the official Instruction Manual.
This manual contains a brief description of camera Fed-2 and the basic rules for using the camera. It
cannot serve as a photography manual.
Slight differences between the description and the camera may occur as a result of technical
modification being introduced in the design of the camera.
Camera Fed-2 operated on standard 35 mm film with a picture size of 24×36 mm. The great
resolving power of the lens makes it possible to obtain perfect large-size pictures. The wide range of
shutter speeds, the trigger winder, synchronizer, automatic releaser, dioptric view-finder setting, the
light weight and compactness of the camera will satisfy the requirements of either amateur or
professional photographer. The camera is fitted with lens Industar-26M or with Industar-61 with
lanthanum Optics. The camera is so designed that it is also possible to use interchangeable lenses
Industar-50, Jupiter-9, Jupiter-11, Jupiter-12 and others. In taking a picture the camera is focused with
the help of the range-finder. The automatic releaser incorporated in the camera allows
