Chronology of cameras Bencini
Remaining faithful to its manufacturing approach that favors the use of cast aluminum, Bencini introduced a new evolution of the Koroll in the early 1960s, the Koroll II. The appearance is much more modern than that of the earlier models.
Like the Koroll 24S, the Koroll II allows for vertically oriented photos in the size of 30 x 45 mm on 120 film. This explains the somewhat distinctive viewfinder. Once again, the bulge housing the viewfinder is oversized and adorned with a mock light meter window.
On this variant, likely one of the more recent ones, the lens is an 8/55 mm. The available shutter speeds are 1/30, 1/60, and 1/125, plus the Bulb mode. The aperture choices are 8, 11, 16, and 22.
There are earlier variations with a shutter limited to 1/100 or with less plastic around the lens and viewfinder window.
