Guys
I have the following as per the photographs for sale.
They were my dads pride and joy and have been hidden away in a cupboard for the last ten years.
I invite offers for these if anyone is interested.
You can get me on dave.crucefix@gmx.co.uk based in Wiltshire.

Thanks for the welcome, I will only be a temporary participant, purely hoping to find a home for my father treasured kit.
Its in really good condition and needs a home rather than be disposed of.

I hope someone is interested.
Thanks again
Dave

Only temporary, eh?

I suppose you're trying to not get bitten by the FSU (Fomer Soviet Union) camera bug. Look at me, I only really liked the zorki 4k, (with a slight soft-spot for the fed 2), and I've only been here for a week or so, and already started buying cameras I didn't know I wanted. The first one is a Zenit C. A nearly entirely rational decision as I need a replacement for the 4k because I can't see enough of te picture area in the viewfinder. I nealry got a fed 3a, nearly got a fed 2, but both are rangefinders and will probably have the same viewfinder 'problem' as the 4k. But I'd like a zenit crystal, and a zenit 4. A member here does have a crystall for sale, but I've not got the money for it. I don't know how many I'll end up with...

Yep just wanted to pass these bits of kit onto someone but noone seems interested.
They need a good home and are in really good condition.

That's a bit of a shame.

Is that the box in the first pic? What's in the 2nd pic? I suppose it's possible that someone may becvome interested if you took a few more pics of the projector out of the box and plastic bag.

I'm in the middle of a quick 'google' and there have been a couple of listings on ebay and 'worthpoint' (never hear of it), and of course they have a couple of photos. There is an entry on 'filmshooting forum' which mentions the russ s8/r8 and it says "it goes stepless from 0 to insane fps nd is pretty consistent and easy to adjust/set as soon as it heats up. "

There doesn't seem to be that much info about them out there in the interwebnet.
