Special USSRPhoto Camera...?

Oh yea, all deposits need to be paid before February 1st in order to get on the first batch shipment.

Thanks,
Vlad.

OK Vlad ... Thank you for your good work on this. I have sent in an order with deposit. I picked the collapsible with box. I like the way collapsible lenses look! ... Old school!

Regards, Bill

Vlad,

I have just sent my deposit to MoscowPhoto for the camera with collapsible lens and box.
Thanks for your hard work in bringing this great idea to reality.

Steve

Vlad,

I have also just sent my deposit to MoscowPhoto for camera with collapsible FED lens and box. I also appreciate all the hard work you have put into this very unique project. Thank you again....

Frank

Well I wouldn't call it hard work, more like pleasant free time spending.. and don't thank me yet, we'll see how the cameras are first .. I'm in a same boat as you guys, but the FED Zarya Sputnik that I got from the same people was of very high quality so I think it'll be a nice looking camera. I see everyone is getting collapsible lens and box, I may do the same, I originally ordered an I-26.. may change it around, I want to see a sample of that box, so I asked for picture of something similar to send me. I'll post it here if I get anything from him.. So now we wait and see.. with luck this will be the camera I'll be taking pictures with at Bievres .

Just a reminder, please place your orders before Feb 1 as he needs a final count to place an order with manufacturer.

Thanks!
Vlad.

vlad,

i have also send a deposit for me and one for guido to moscowphoto. both with collapsible lens and box.
i thank you for work and time.

That's done too, but without box and with a 26M. For me, a Fed 2 is with a 26M...
Thanks, Vlad, even before we receive the camera!

Amitiйs. Jacques.

Fascinating .
I bought 3 x Zorki 1 Leica from Mika @ moscowphoto and 3x Zorki S Leica .
They are all superb . New matt chrome base toplate , thick black top plates and new coverings .
OK , they are faux German wartime , but exquitely engraved .
With black and silver faux Elmars !
A work of art ! They were Ј 70 Z 1 and Ј60 Z S ,
They have new blinds and smooth and quiet .
I could not have bought a standard camera with such care lavished on it -
even altais excellent restorations are no better .

I will stick with my Kievs from Mike Haley and his ex-Arsenal techs !

Good luck with the project - methinks that it won't be long before all the Ex-USSR camera sources are exhausted .

That will be nice!

Regards, Bill

Good news everyone!

Just got word. Seems like our cameras will be ready for shipment in about 2 weeks.

Vlad

Any pictures or drawings of the final product?

Steve

Hi Steve,

No, unfortunately not.. all I know is that the seller called the guy who was making them and he said that they should be ready in about 2 weeks...

I'm in a same boat as you guys.. I've asked him for a prototype, but he said the guy is making all the cameras at once... so unfortunately we'll have to hope that they'll all be to our spec.. he has the mockups, the drawings and the detailed high-res engravings file I sent them to use.. based on their past work I'm not really concerned because they seem to do a nice job in general.. well we'll wait and see..

Vlad.

My dear members!
The Nagoya's Camera Club developed an interesting logo. There two cameras the beloved Yallu and a 35mm stereo model from the membership.
They also boast an interesting panoramic of their own design of pin hole type (Stenopeika in Greek) with a fish form shutter.
Here the images:

Does he have a picture of the camera? Would be nice to see if there's one extra...

Best regards,

That's done.
I am eager to see that, and to test it!

Thanks, Vlad!

Amitiйs. Jacques.

Juhani,

working on getting those pictures for you, I'll post them here once he sends them since I'm sure everyone is interested in seeing those.

Jacques, I'm anxious to see it too . One of the reasons I've asked for pictures from the seller.
