I am looking for the flange focal distance (film plane to rear of lens assembly) from a kind Lubitel owner out there. Also, do you know if the actual body size may have changed through the different models (Lubitel 2. - Lubitel 166 U)? I am assuming that it remained the same but can only find the size for the Lubitel 166 166U - 126 mm (H) x 98 mm (W) x 95 mm (D)
I am asking as I'm looking for a medium format TLR which can be adapted to a simple wide angle meniscus Holga-style lens, so the camera has to have a short film plane to flange distance. The Lubitel appears to have this?

Thanks
David

Lubitel-2 ex-owner here. Never bothered to downgrade to 166.
Keep MiC Holga sh_t out from this cameras. Lubitels are serviceable with their own taking, viewing lens.
