The Kiev 20 was the best of the Nikon bayonet system SLR's produced by Arsenal but the price put it beyond the means of most soviet consumers and the camera was not successful. It was eventually withdrawn and replaced with a simpler, cheaper model, the Kiev 19. Kiev 20 adds full aperture metering to Kiev-17, and 20 was also sold as 17M. An excellent camera, with a few gremlins like most late soviet products.
