Hello all!!

I have these 2 different models of the Zenit 122...
I haven't seen them in any catalog....
The story says they were made by a Polish guy living here in France...
I have bought them in France 3 or 4 years ago..
Serial numbers are 92162741 for the brown one and 99023900 for the military green one.

Enjoy!!!![:D][:D]

Fred

Hello Siegfried

Hmmm ... This modifications have nearly nothing to do with the real 50 Anniversary models shown on Aidas site. It's the same camera, but repaintet and with ugly logos and writings on it.

Best wishes - Guido

I agree with Guido, it's an aftermarket modification.

Cheers,

Here's how a real '92 Anniversary looks like, they only made 300 that had 92 prefix for the serial # and it is not the one Fred bought.
