Hello all,

Thanks to welcome me in your group!

I practice photography since 1983 and discovered russian gear a few years ago (after my Olympus dropped in a river...).

My main "weapon" is a Zenit 3M and 3 russian lenses (Mir-1, Helios-44 and Jupiter-11). I own other cameras and lenses (Praktica, Konica, Ricoh...) but let's go back to the subject!

I am more a user than a collector but I am interested in all about russian equipment: rare cameras and lenses, history, maintenance, everything!

Take care!

Welcome Gelios,

Nice to have you here! The Zenit 3M is a pleasure to use and the results can be quite good. Maybe sometime you can show us some photographs you have made with it.

Regards, Bill
