Posted - Oct 25 2007 : 10:19:01 PM I just received my Zenit Automat.. it looks like takes a weird kind of battery almost like a AAA/AA but shorter in size. What would be the equivalent can I use in USA?
Thanks, Vlad

Yes.

Posted - Oct 26 2007 : 10:33:35 AM Thank you Carter and Zoom, between both your links I've determined the right battery. So I guess originally it was 4 РЦ-53 but I guess I can use a single PX28.
But.. I think I may already have the smaller ones, Zoom - do you know from memory if these РЦ-53 is the same battery that Lomo LC-A takes? I think I got about 50 of those. :) Maybe I can use them.
Thanks,
Vlad.
