S-13

hi vlad, thanks for welcome. i have make a picture of me in a other site by aidas.

yes, the black camera come from komz. all other have not a logo. but they are also a soviet production. i have read no other information for a licenses production in a east europe country.
i will search for more information.
best regards

Nothing could be affirmative or definitive once we carefully examine the camera interior detecting each manufacturing parts. They clearly detect the original machines who built them. Czechs and Russians long cooperate in several fields The Czech MeOpta "Admira" 8mm movie camera was produced by LOMO as "Cilla" and Czechs had all technology to build S=13. My opinion: There are not so much Migs Sukhois or Yaks justifying another S-13 factory; and remember Normally, military equipment uses in having no factory logo.

Luiz, all we know that the Russian counterpart has KOMZ logo on it, it's enough indication I think that these cameras originated in Soviet Union.

for information...
may be you still know this picture ?

Great pictures! Should they be added to Wiki?

The aircraft installation pictures is from my web site, it belongs to Robert E. Schwartz.

Interesting detail on first picture camera has russian letters on the lens and on the sixth Latin letters, but same words.

Okynek, I've received my cassette today, it seems like it is mounted inside only by pressure plates so it pops out once I pull one it... although it almost feels like it's not in all the way, it seems to be in and sitting correctly but it's hard to close the door but it does close if I apply extra pressure and lock it... I'll play with it some more when I have some time, maybe I am not doing something right, but as far as I can see there are not buttons or releases for it on the inside of the casing.

Vlad,

Thank you Vlad! I give up trying to take cassette out of the camera by now. I waiting packagte with second camera what is differnt in some ways(see pictures in wiki). May be second camera will have answers. May be my vertion has notremovable cassete?(unlikely thought).
