This is a LINDAR Camera that was produced in West Germany during the early to late 1950′s by a man named Friedrich Lindenscheid of Ludenscheid, Germany. What makes this camera unique is the logo on the front which is three white circles that have the letters F.L.L in them, the letters are the initials of the inventor. These marking can also be seen on his WW2 metals.  This Lindar camera takes a 6×6 cm photo on a 120 roll of film, making for excellent photos. The camera includes an instant bulb shutter lever, a single dial on the front that selects a yellow filter to enhance clouds in black and white photos just to add a little more drama to a photo with a gloomy overcast. This camera has a twin with the same functions, its name is the ” LINDEN Reporter”. Both of these cameras have a fix focus, one f-stop and two settings.
