No, of course... He designed some boxes to a LOMO-made cameras and underwater equipment to a movie cameras, including a professional ones. Wait some time... Just now G. Abramov is preparing a page about the Soviet underwater boxes ( http://www.photohistory.ru )...

Thanks for that Massarski site!! It's great! Didn't know he had one. No I don't think only Massarski made underwater stuff, but I know he did most of them. :) Would not be surprised if he did do the Gidrorussar enclosure to work with this lens too that why I asked. I know Bill (nightphoto) will also love this link to Massarski site if he does not know about it already, he's a huge fan.
Cheers, Vlad
