A twin-lens reflex camera (TLR) is a type of popular camera that has two lenses of the same focal length. One of the lenses is the photographic objective (the lens that takes the picture), while the other is used for taking pictures at waist-level. The blackbird fly (camera shown) is a retro camera from Japan. It uses standard 35mm ("old school") film with a wide angle 33mm lens with focal adjustment. Other features include two exposure settings (F7/F11), two shutter speeds, and a hot shoe. While its considered more of a "toy camera" (its made entirely out of plastic), its a fun way to experiment with film. The Blackbird fly comes in 5 different colors (black, blue, red, orange, & white), and is a superly cute camera to add to any budding photographer's "arsenal." See more (here)
