Description
This is my father's Flexaret Va, a twin-lens reflex camera made in 1958 in Czechoslovakia. He used to take photos earlier and used mostly this type. I've found it recently and wanted to preserve the memory of it.Buy this print here: [link]

I've heard that these were good cameras. I hope that this one is still in use. TLRs are fun, once you get used to the image looking backward.

Sure thing it's still working Right, the worst is indeed the mirrored view, you want to move to the right but instead you're looking to the left, awesome really

I love old cameras : ) they seem to have so much more character then these digital plastic things we use today, same with old cars.

You're right, and taking photos was also different. All the things you had to do before the photo can be seen... not quite as pressing the button with digital camera
