• A twin-lens reflex camera (TLR) is a type of camera with two objective
lenses of the same focal length. One of the lenses is the photographic
objective or "taking lens" (the lens that takes the picture), while the other
is used for the viewfinder system, which is usually viewed from above at
waist level.
• A rangefinder camera is a camera fitted with a rangefinder, typically a
split-image rangefinder: a range-finding focusing mechanism allowing the
photographer to measure the subject distance and take photographs that
are in sharp focus.
