Aidas had been kind enough to share this link with us:
http://www.sovietcamera.su/lots and lots of downloadable books, manuals and magazines for our subject. I wonder who the owner is, I'd love to have him participate here...
Cheers,
Vlad

Thank you to both Aidas and Vlad for this useful link. I was particularly interested in the reproductions of the early photographic literature and copies of Soviet Photo.

Sovietcamera is an excellent website, I would enjoy it even more if I had less difficulty reading Russian.

It would be useful to most of us if it was in English!

Joe,
The site you can run though Google translator but the content available for download - we're talking original documents here, magazines and books in electronic version, that's incredibly valuable. With proper skills and desire you can run though PDFs via OCR software and then Google-translate those as well into English! the hardest part - scanning all those in has been done for us! - or learn some Russian [;)][:D][:D][:D]
