Weird Zenit 12xp

9 posts in this thread
I never see such nameplate before. Could it be Italian export?
I’m pretty sure Aidas will trade Kiev 35AM on it to you Smile
LOL It says it's not in good condition, I was just wondering what the heck does it say on it, i can't even read it.. "Di Wrap"?
Who says it should be in good conditions to be collectable?Smile
well... for camera that recent I'd prefer to be in good condition....

You may also stick something on any camera body... ;)

P.S.
Btw, Zenit-12 and Zenit-12xp -- are different cameras. Be precise in indexes.
Hehe.. no this does not quite look like a sticker, looks like painted on name. Sorry, I will change the name of the thread :)all in good spirit, Zoom Smile. But your corrections and much needed, helps me learn not to be a "sobiratel" but a "collector"! Smile
Zenit 12 same as Zenit TTL with a new body Galvanometer light meter
Zenit 12 XP od 12 SD same as 12 but electronic LED esposure meter.

He-he... ;) Not so simple...
Initially, in 1975--1976 years there were two projects: Zenit-12 and Zenit-12M...
Zenit-12 was died (it was claimed* that a few cameras were made).
Then Zenit-12M was renamed to Zenit-TTL, and production started in 1977. And then in 1983 the "second" Zenit-12 was "born". It was renamed Zenit-TTL from 1983, but with a best finishing.
