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

With the Zorki-10, the Narciss, the Drug and the Iskra, the Voskhod is one of those cameras that prove that the Soviet-Russian camera industry was capable of more than just producing bulky, crude Leica copies. Very un-Zorki-like, the Voskhod has a grace and elegance not often seen in cameras from the former Soviet Union, and some design and technical features which were unique for its time [2].
