Krasnogorsk-2

A butterfly two-blade shutter opens at 150° (2 × 75°) and provides over a mirror system an exact replica of the recorded frame to the eyepiece.

The camera could be attached to a tripod using a standard 3/8 "screw or to a pistol grip with a shoulder rest for handheld shooting.

The Krasnogorsk-2 has a Krasnogorsk Bayonette mount, which adapted to the following lenses: The camera weighs 6.7 lbs (3 kg) without accessories.

The camera was introduced in 1966 by Krasnogorsky Zavod as a result of Nikita Khrushchev's reforms to produce more consumer devices in the USSR.

The K-2 still remains popular among amateur filmmakers due to its low price (around $200 for a complete set) and small build.
