Introduction

Hello my name is Nikos Papadopoulos and I am from Greece. Before a year I bought from Praga a Zenit TTL inexcellent condition and also a flash. Recently a friend of mine gave me a Zenit 11 in very good condition except the lightmeter that does not works.

Bienvenue, Nick!
You will find plenty of Zenit collectors here!

Amitiйs. Jacques.

Greetings Nikos from U.S.A Zenit's are good basic cameras with a lot of lenses available, The meter is dead, more than likely the cell is dead. Still quite usable. Welcome and hope to hear from you often. Don

Nice one Nick glad to see you, Zenits are like insects, they will survive the Apocalypse and everything else. There are a still a lot of us that use them here! I hope you find it useful, Richard

Samsung GX-10,too many Russian Lenses,some Zenit,Yashica,Pentax Bodies and a Minox35GT

Welcome Nick! Now you need to get a nice Zenit-E.. In my opinion it's the best Zenit . No batteries needed and it has the lightmeter!

But the Zenit 11 has not the same lightmeter with the Zenit E;

Just yesterday received a gift box from a friend in Poland. It was two Smena cameras. One was passed on to my sister and the other Smena 6 is in me hands for now, rotation between the two is considered elementary!
Quite excited with the site of them both, they look like they could start talking to me! I cannot wait to start taking pictures, but the manual that me mate sent was for another one and besides the basic handling, which I have got through and ‘basically’ understood, I can’t really understand the way to load and unload the film.
I have been using an Olympus OM4 for years now, still not into digital (not even a cheapy one – although i should for the sake of experimentation), and really looking forward to trying out the Smena 6.
I should send you all some photos of it, it was bought @ a flea market, but what I would like to ask for (before SALUTING EVERYONE IN THE FORUM !!!) is IF ANY ONE KNOWS WHERE I COULD FIND A SMENA 6 MANUAL.
All the Best,
ZanManFu

A correction.
Zenit E,EM, ET 10, 11, have the SAME light meter!
