The LOMO Druzhba (Russian: friendship) is a Soviet medium-format stereo camera produced by LOMO in Leningrad, introduced around 1960. It uses 120 roll film and produces pairs of 6x6cm stereo image frames on a single roll. Two lenses are mounted side by side at the stereo baseline spacing required to simulate binocular human vision; a central leaf shutter serves both optical paths simultaneously. The camera has no built-in light meter and relies on zone focus rather than a coupled rangefinder, placing it toward the simpler end of medium-format Soviet engineering. The Druzhba was produced in limited numbers and had a short production run; it is today among the more elusive Soviet medium-format cameras.

Soviet stereo photography had a modest lineage by the time the Druzhba appeared. The GOMZ/LOMO factory had previously produced the Sputnik, a 6x6 TLR-style stereo camera on 120 film, which gave LOMO engineers familiarity with the stereo medium-format format. The Druzhba was introduced around 1960 under a name carrying obvious Cold War-era political connotations - "friendship" was a common Soviet marketing and propaganda trope of the Khrushchev period. Production was brief; the specialized nature of stereo photography, the complexity of producing matched twin lens-and-shutter assemblies to adequate tolerances, and limited consumer demand all worked against a long run. Most surviving examples are found in Eastern European collections.
The Druzhba is significant primarily as a collector's piece occupying a narrow intersection: Soviet manufacture, medium-format film, and stereo photography simultaneously. Soviet stereo cameras on 120 film are uncommon compared to the 35mm stereo format. The "friendship" name and the early 1960s provenance make it a period piece. For stereo photographers working in medium format today, the Druzhba produces a larger stereo pair than 35mm stereo systems, which translates to more detail and a more immersive stereo effect when properly mounted and viewed. The rarity of matched, functioning examples in good condition keeps collector interest high relative to supply.
