dbo:abstract
  • The Ami is a viewfinder camera made of plastic, produced during the communist era of Poland era by the Polish firm Warsaw Photo-Optical Works or WZFO. It was the successor to their Bakelite-cased camera, which was popular with youth due to its simplicity. The Ami was also quite popular, although its availability was sometimes restricted due to production limits in the economy imposed by the government. The word ami does not have any particular meaning in Polish, but French was a widely known language in Poland at the time and it is thus possible that the name refers to the French word ami ("friend").

Projekt aparatu Ami zrywa z opływowymi kształtami art déco, które charakteryzowały jego bakelitowego poprzednika. Do wykonania obudowy zastosowano "styropol", inaczej polistyren wysokoudarowy, co zmniejszyło wagę i umożliwiło zastosowanie atrakcyjniejszych zestawień barwnych. (pl)
