And it mentions a SECOND Zenit 11 that was not produced... anyone knows of it? And an interesting Zenit-ISM by BelOMO... these 2 are news for me, just thought I'd mention ![](icon_smile.gif)
Also very useful appendixes with production volumes for FEDs and Zorkis...

Michel... hehehe.. yes this is book is quite outdated, but I found it on my hard drive (Aidas, I think I just found it on the Russian RFF site), so I decided to upload it since it was not in catalog already.. just for archiving purposes. ![](icon_smile.gif)

Too much errors, perhaps. But there are some very interestings things too. For example, about Fed 1s. It is said in the appendix 2 that no camera can be found between 182292 and 210024. In fact, I never saw any Fed 1 after 184000 and before 209000 if we except the Red Flags of course. Not so bad... Right to say that some lines after, he speaks about unnumbered 1 after #540000. A pity he didn't have a look at the back part of the cover...
Amitiés. Jacques. |

that's expected for a non-production model, especially by Boris .. |

Hello! A very interesting thing in this book about the numberings used by Fed. It is said in appendix 3 that the Fed 2-s were engraved with ordinal numbers till c. 1100000 in 1961, the next ones have cipher engravings (probably because of the first Fed 3-s which are numbered in the same range, I suppose). So, does anybody know which ciphers were used by the factory? It would be essential to establish a relation between serial number and year of production...
Amitiés. Jacques. |
