Interesting camera that I had never seen. Old, but not prewar. The Fed lenses have the new diaphragm scale (f 3,5 - 4 - 5,6...) which appeared in the early 50s.

Jacques, you have never seen this camera before, because it doesn't exist at all. It seems to be an attempt to tinker something like stereo camera from the parts of some special device (may be military). Name "этюд" was engraved manually and not really neat.
P.S. It is only my opinion of course, but I think it is so.
Regards, Alexander |

Extraordinary! ..... At Photohistory. ru there are two different pictures of two different "etiud" models. The auctioned one is slightly different from both. Regards LP |

Luiz, there are two pictures of the same camera, one photo of the camera in leather case (above) and one without (below). And it seems to be the camera from the jp auction (in already worse condition). So, there was only one home made "model", sorry.

1) This camera deserves a separate description page. 2) The camera was altered, once it was added a flash contact in the top panel (probably from Zorki) 3) Every detail conduct us to a "guillotine shutter" (seats behind the lens) as it is armed through Pin 7 and speed regulated through knob 6. 4) It is a kind of cloth shutter with slit regulation but not a focal plane as one can clearly see through pictures. 5) The camera uses some FED parts has a particular construction. Engravings are clearly hand made but body and external chrome parts imposes special dyes demonstrating the probability that more than one was made. 6)Lenses seems to be coated denoting post war construction. 7)Who was A.Mishenko?
Who knows the hidden true story? Best Regards LP |

Anyone has any info on A.Mishenko? Is he a known camera designer or just enthusiast? this is pretty cool though, seems like it's a historical home made camera , photos seem to be from some magazine, most likely Soviet Photo... |

Construction of the camera is described in link in 5th post of this thread by Moxies. There is Затвор щелевой which means focal plane shutter, isn't it ? Is it proper translation ?

"slit shutter" == "щелевой затвор". "focal plane shutter" == "фокальный затвор". "focal plane slit shutter" == "фокальный щелевой затвор". Each term has its own meaning. |
