Posted - Nov 06 2015 : 5:29:45 PM Another virtually unknown camera to spy on the USSR! Not even one, but three! The prototype test sample and work! MFK - the first camera - a fake - the weight of 300 grams. Second ¹ 1981- partial working chamber with optics. Weight 250 grams. And the third - number 1982 - a fully working version. Built-in clock mechanism allows the camera to automatically keep shooting. Frame size is probably 10x10. Information about the camera virtually none. Estimated cost - EUR 15,000

Posted - Nov 07 2015 : 10:19:04 AM Hello Gentlemen! I missed that somehow on eBay, absolutely different spy camera design that I've seen in Soviet cameras, very elegant. It definitely looks like it's based on the Minox design. The elegance of this camera screams KMZ civilian designer to me and not the shop that made F-21 and other spy cameras seen on the market. Those seem very crude compared to this one.. almost like Nikolay Mikhaylovich Marenkov designed it
