I am an Soviet and Russian camera collector residing in State of Illinois, USA. I have only somewhat recently started collecting (since May 2007) these fine examples of Soviet and Russian mechanical engineering and design that until late 80s have been closed off to the rest of the world. Now that these cameras have come to light, I want to share them with all of you. Recently I have decided to start cataloging Soviet and Russian cameras online, thus the USSRPhoto.com project was born, which is a Wiki catalog of Russian and Soviet cameras.

Wiki Catalog Entry

The KMZ designers lengthened the viewfinder housing, as they did with the earlier "Zorki-C" and "Zorki-2C" models and the sexy looking Zorki-3 turned ugly. The Zorki-3C actually signals the beginning of a new model line. The only difference between it and the early Zorki-4A is the 4A has a self timer.
