I have just acquired this Polish TLR manufactured in Warsaw from 1960 to 1965 by the company WZFO (Warszawskie Zakłady Foto Optyczne). It is a Start II, the most sophisticated model in the range with its film winding crank.
Manufacturing this model was expensive. In addition, its complex mechanics had a negative impact on its reliability. Competed by equivalent foreign devices, it did not have the commercial success expected by WZFO. It is, therefore, a particularly rare device.
Mine is complete and completely functional, which adds to my pleasure
