I was presented for this when visiting a friend. There is no name written on the camera.

Anyone who knows what it is?

It is a SEM camera as written on the film advance knob, and looks like a Babysem model:

Mmmm.... I still think it's a Kim. As in the first photo in your second link Florent. It looks identical except it still has the focus ring.

Anyway lahnet, there is missing part in front of the lens of your camera.
