I could not resist to show you all I became fascinated!
He talked to the guy using it, he said it's a Chinese 3D camera .But really it is's a film camera using 120 film made by an expert!. The viewfinder is just like a box camera. It has no focusing capabilities. The top cover uses a Salit/Kiev80 hood. The guy told it's also a very expensive camera, he said it sells for about $1,500 (US),! Camera has three Mamiya Sekor 4.5/55mm lenses set ay the Hyperfocal position. The body is made extra thick plastics and is heavy! A masterpiece of skill! The advance seems to come from an old Cosina adapted to run 120 films in the old red window system. The speed dial clicks for counting frames 1- to -12 at six different cllcks.
A real Masterpiece!

Everything solved:
theis is a modified version of 3D World stereo camera.
Original lenses were removed as well as the two focal plane behind the lenses.These were replaced by two original Seiko shutters from Mamiya 220/330...



Wow, it's REALLY modified Smile Salyut waistfinder is a nice touch Smile.
