I recently purchased a FARM-3 camera, a very interesting piece, looks a lot like FARM-2, almost identical. There is another piece on eBay that has a viewfinder that goes into the film cartridge slot. I guess I'm a bit confused why you would need a viewfinder if there is already a viewfinder for both eyes on it...

here's the piece on eBay I'm talking about:

hehehe, you got me there Zoom! .. I guess Осушитель made me first think of water applications.. I stand corrected and will change the description of the entry. And thank you Mike for identifying the camera - I love it! - the Wiki project at its best!

Some kind of submarine camera based on words "Осушитель" which means "dryer", implying nautical use.


You think that there is no humidity in air, only in water? ;)
