Tell me about it! You should see my office - cameras are slowly moving in and Vlad is slowly moving out.

Just got a commemorative Zenit 3M as well from eBay! It has Kremlin, cruiser Aurora and a rocket on it with inscription 1917-1967. (50 years of Soviet regime). Special thanks to nightphoto for pointing that one out for me!

Zarya is a very nice camera if you learn the trick of focusing it properly. I-26 lens is nice. Maybe use a Blik rangefinder or some other rangefinder with it, unless you have good eye-measure skills.

I bid on one of those a while ago .... they must be very collectable because it quickly went beyond my pocket

Whatever .... plain vanilla is still tasty

It wasn't THAT bad price-wise:
