Hi to all.
I came across these two Zenits:
Zenit 122 which I can not see on sovietcams website - it looks like it has some leftover of film info window on the front right side, but it's shallow plastic rim without textured plastic inside.
Black Zenit E from 1973. I don't see black non olympic Zenit E on sovietcams website.
Do you think it's worth notifying Aidas about these specimens? Do you think they are a legit variants?
Thank you for your answers in advance.

The version of the Zenit 122 shown above is not described in the sovietcams Zenit 122 section (link above). |

Vlad - if you are interested in this Zenit, I'm not planning to keep it. It's in working condition and I don't see any damage worth mentioning. In very brief search on ebay I saw couple of them, but they are a bit different - mine is marked Made in USSR despite being from 1992, the one on ebay is marked Made in Russia.
As far as I know, sovietcams is only about RF lenses (and camera?), not SLR |

I have seen a couple of these 122 and always wondered why it was done like that.
Best regards,

Yeah I've seen the Zenit E like that before but the 122 is quite interesting, never ran into one! Thanks for adding another camera to my search list  . Nice find!
Cheers,

The Zenit 122 with Júpiter lens(see symbol "IO")correspond to the first series
The black Zenit E withut olympic symbol is very commom.
