Wow...

Over 3.000 €uros at the moment.
Well known bidder Arsat also in the game.

Best regards,
Juhani

What is the exact place of this Zenit in the production?
Sure, it's the s/n 6. I suppose it belongs to the second prototypes, by the Princelle?

Thanks. Jacques.

Looks like they had a very very long development with several protypelike versions before getting it to serial production.

Best regards,
Juhani

Yes...
Thanks, Juhani.
Here is the s/n 00010 of the same 2nd proto series, on levonsa's site:
http://ussrcameras.ru/catalog/187 Seems as a sister of this s/n 0006.
Princelle had already shown this same s/n 00010 (by the s/n of the lens)in his book.

Amitiés. Jacques.

Does anyone know what is the purpose of that second window on the back of the camera beside the finder?

This is the window to an interior shutter speed dial (a similarly design was in the ZENIT-L project, see http://www.zenitcamera.com/archive/zenit-1/zenit-l.html).



It was a good idea, but it would be better to bring the image of the installed shutter speed right into the viewfinder... It's possible, although a very little space is there.
Unfortunately, the lower cost price won...

Very well noted by Zoom. Although in Zenit L the top dial is not rotating as in prototype 00006, once it follows Contax S pressure coupling system

The lens is an I-22 for macro outfit produced by KMZ. There were also R-Helios-2 and Industar-49 in this outfit.

Price is very high, but I'm glad the buyer is not an unknown rich guy.

Pictures are on the book of Dr. Mladek, so I don't think I have the autorisation to publy them.

R-Helios-2 is a 45mm/2 (I have the technical version here http://pierretizien-photos.blogspot.fr/p/r-helios-2.html )
Industar-49 is a 25mm/3.5 macro lens.
