Unfortunately I found out today, that the Internet site www.ZENITcamera.com is closed (07.10.1999–02.05.2012).
Does anybody have more information about? May be this info-site was ported anywhere?
I have written an email to KMZ today and hope to get some news next week.

Regards, Alexander

I hope they are updating their site for the new Horizon or something of that matter. It would be very sad if they closed down definitely.

there is also a web site focusing on the history of the soviet photo industry:

NOOO!
That was such a nice website. Tons of information, lens diagrams, etc.
Perhaps its for KMZ to have a surprise intro of a Digital Zenit? HA HA Fat Chance...:(
Nope, all they got is that new Horizon that has an unsure future. Did they even start producing them yet?

Anyways, that site was a good read when bored....I will miss it

You can still download the info. at Internet Archive Wayback Machine. I can't get a direct link that will work on the forum, but if you go to http://www.archive.org/web/web.php and type in www.zenitcamera.com you will get there.

Very very sad....
For how long this web side will stay at archive.org? Doe anybody know?
Is it any way we can obtain and retain mirror of Zenitcamera web side?

Thanks Steve: it works. Better than nothing.
Perhaps Zoom knows something about the site?

I got yesterday answer from KMZ:

"В рамках модернизации Интернет-ресурсов открытого акционерного общества «Красногорский завод им. С.А. Зверева»
(ОАО КМЗ) было принято решение о создании единого сайта ОАО КМЗ на базе официального сайта предприятия
www.zenit-foto.ru, на котором будет размещена вся актуальная информация."

"Within the modernization of Internet resources of open joint stock company «Krasnogorsky plant of S.A.Zverev»
(JSC KMZ) was made the decision on creation of a uniform site of JSC KMZ on the basis of an official site of the enterprise
www.zenit-foto.ru on which all actual information will be placed."

That's all. No concrete information. May be we can really find sometime information of old www.ZENITcamera.com on the new www.zenit-foto.ru site?

I could not find anything from old ZenitCamera webside on new Zenit-foto webside.
I can not believe that they trashed all that information.
The only bright side is some information about new Horizont:
