Vintage Siluet Elektro 35mm film camera
Vintage Siluet Elektro 35mm Film Camera - Retro Photography Camera
A distinctive vintage Siluet Elektro (Силуэт-Электро) 35mm film camera, produced from 1975 to 1981.
The Siluet Elektro was a compact viewfinder camera with manual focusing and electronically controlled automatic exposure. It was based on the Vilia camera design and fitted with a Triplet 69-3 40mm f/4 lens.
With its simple black body, textured surface, Cyrillic lettering and classic lens design, this camera has a wonderfully characteristic 1970s vintage appearance. Today it makes an interesting addition to a vintage camera collection and a beautiful styling object for interiors, photography studios and photoshoots.
