Hi David, very nice set, I was eyeing it on eBay for a while [:)], then decided not to bid to the condition of the camera, I'm very glad you got it! Congrats!
Vlad.

Hi Vlad,
The camera turned out to be fine. It was just that the batteries had corroded. It just needed a bit of a clean up and is now as good as new. I am now looking to add the missing lenses.
David.

So your the one who outbid me on the set [:(!]
At least it has gone to a good home. :) Enjoy the camera.
I had a feeling the camera was OK. Zenit 19 with no batteries does not really work perfect.
Why dont they produce nice camera outfits like that today? A digital version of a Zenit 19 or 18 would be awesome. There is a gaping hole in the market for a simple, reliable, digital slr. Everything today puts the computerization in your face, and I dont like that. (Excluding a few insanely expensive cameras)
Pipe dreams.....sigh.[8D] [;)]
