Of course cameras were noted -- from F21 to photosnipers.
The question is: In my opinion, emphasis were done in FED-2 or pehaps in the red Zenit -Which is the model?????

Thank you, I'm hoping this will draw some attention to the site, not that it needs it at this point, the forum had been so busy past few days that I'm barely keeping up reading all the posts, the wealth of amazing information is astounding!
This mini-site was conceived about a month ago to help promote the site a bit and give it little exposure. It had over 3000 page views today! [:0] I was not sure how it is being received by collector, etc.. I may continue doing such shoots in the future, depends on people's reaction. I am planning use different models for each one... what do you think? [:I]

Alain,
it's what's called "double difficulty"! :) You just gave me a good idea, maybe the next mini-site should be member photos? I would want to see French, Lithuanian, Brazilian, American, Russian, Swiss, British, etc women with FSU cameras shot nicely. You can send me photos and I will make it into another mini-site. How about that? [:D]
Vlad.

This forum is just full of dirty old men isn't it? [;)] LOL J/K
Yes I will start my next search for a new model and more props... those are becoming a problem (props that is)... Maybe I'll do a "Georgian" theme next. [:D]

Proud to be 44,9 years old. Only a bit over 40...
Seriously: finally I don't have to spend all my time to kids (soon adults) and I am getting a decent salary = more expensive cameras (only if I can find them)! And not yet so old that age would affect on what I can and cannot do.

It is surely a great shot.
You know, I often get questions about carrying cameras without strap lugs (like Zokris and FEDs). Now I see a solutions for those who ask!! I'll just point them to this picture. And offer bras at fedka.com in the accessories section.
PS. Vlad, you can't post pictures like this! You are in the USA, not in France!

Thanks all...
Vlad, lights came only from the street ! No additionnal ! So you can do that too, easy for sure...
Fedka, you're right about new style carrying strap !!! Not sure about this way for men !
Sorry, i don't well understand for difference US/France you said about this picture cause there's no nudity, nothing visible, only underwear ! I saw worst on USA TV, movies or videoclips ! My apologize if something wrong...
At least, i would say that Victoria's pix are so good cause of the complete soviet style she wear... bravo encore !
Waiting impatiently your future photos, Vlad !

hi vlad,
there are very nice picture, including equipment, very good idea. the photo with the f-21 is very well. i miss, in my eyes, the feeling for the camera, first, i see only the model, then the camera. but it should be reversed. it is difficult, a model and a camera to takes photographs. try it once, with less body picture, with more details. golden rule, less is more.
no criticism, but a suggestion for next pictures.
i hope, we see yet a lot of pictures.
regards
mike

Thank you Mike, I will keep it in mind, next shoot I will try to make camera more of a centerpiece. But I also was going for "Oh by the way there is also a Soviet camera on this girl" look too [:)].. I wanted less product oriented, and more natural environment pictures for these cameras, do you know what I mean?

It was a joke, addressed to Vlad, he probably understood me.
Generally you see more revealing images in European press than in the US.
And there is nothing wrong with the picture, actually you should post more:-)
