Jacques,
that sounds crazy. There are supposed to have been cameras that were produced on the way to Berdsk? Unbelievable somehow.
But what is interesting and new to me is that the cameras from number 166617 onwards were probably produced in Berdsk. I have one with the number 169520 with matching lens no. 169428. 22/IV is engraved on the inside of the shutter, which fits very well with the statement in Viktor Suglob's book (February - October 1942). So it seems that I have a FED 1d from Berdsk, wow :-)

Yes Ulrich.
It's just the problem. Could the cameras from # 166617 have been made in Berdsk? For the moment, we thought here that (almost?) all the cameras up to the 183xxx, so including all the last 1d and (most of?) the 1e were made in Kharkov before the "removal" of september 1941.
So, is there a reason why "1200 cameras..." states about these late 1d made up to 1942, and the 1e made in 1946/47 in the pages 379 and 380?
Still perplex...

For the moment, I don't know if there is something new to think, Fred... There are no visible modifications in the last subseries of Fed 1d (from c. 150000), and nothing different in their description in "1200 cameras..."
So, an explanation by Viktor Suglob would be certainly useful. Vlad, please... Perhaps?![](icon_smile.gif)

Jacques,
so, now I have also received such a strange FED here. It has the serial number 165553 with a matching lens with the number 164785. Compared to my 169520 I see absolutely no difference, both cameras look identical. Even the lens cap is the same (large, deeply embossed FED name). The vulcanite looks the same, the engraving on the cap looks the same. The only difference is that all the body screws have a much flatter head, still slightly curved, but not as much as on the FEDs. The best thing is that all the screws look like new, so it has obviously never been opened. As far as I can see, 20/III or 20/II is engraved on the inside of the case. But I won't be able to see it more precisely until I take it apart.
