Youyi 友谊 2型 Type I

Introduced in 1975 by Youyi, the 友谊 2型 Type I was a straightforward 35mm rangefinder camera designed as an accessible option for photographers in the Chinese market. It featured a basic shutter speed range from B (bulb) to 1/300 second and weighed 396 grams, typical of its era's consumer-grade construction. As a fixed-lens 35mm camera offering manual focusing via a rangefinder, it served its purpose as a functional, portable tool for everyday photography without significant technical innovation or widespread international acclaim.
