What is a "twin-lens reflex camera"?
A twin-lens reflex (TLR) camera is a type of camera that features two lenses mounted one above the other. The top lens is used for viewing and composing the image, while the bottom lens is used for capturing the photograph. This design allows the photographer to see exactly what the camera will record through a viewfinder, often located on the top of the camera. TLR cameras are known for their distinctive design and high-quality images, and they are commonly used in medium format photography.
