Help me to identify the camera

Recommended Posts

I just passed by a camera store (it is almost midnight here so it was

closed :)) and found a nice piece of camera. The price card said

"fonix 6x6" - it should be phoenix 6x6 in english.

I have no idea what camera it is. It is more like a Kodak retina not

like the pentacon six or mamiya rb/rz 67.

Any help really appreciated :)

There is a Chinese camera manufacturer with that name (Fenghuang in Chinese), but I am not sure they made anything in the 6x6 format. Their 35mm slr's are a popular entry for students on a budget here (they start from around $40 new). They are actually quite ok, but no bells and whisles.

Well, I went to the shop and checked this masterpiece :) It made in Germany looks quite new. It has two apertures marked 5.6 and 11 but any aperture can be set between these values. Is has 1/25, 1/75 and B times.

I expected more :(
