Hi alain,

So far no more than 20 'B' prefix Kiev III has been found. They are rare. Buy it.

Hi Zhang...
I am not Rockfeller , you know....
Ok I buy it and...you pay for me ....OK friend ?

Congratulations !

ps : the seller wrote "tested with film"

damned friends ...and now , tell me how and where I will get money to feed my family ???

I also hardly resisted the temptation ! Such a rare camera is a good investment :)

Hi alain,

I did not know my advice would cost me so much. Well, maybe I could give you a vintage Chinese watch for my mistake.

thanks Zhang...so,after listen you all, I make a very good crisis investment : I will be a (the) new world company !!

Hi,Gentle Kiev Addicts,

We shall have hard work in recensing all Kiev cells !!









Amitiйs.

Hello Alain,

Thanks lots !

So there's at least five scale marks models on Kiev III cameras. That one - previously posted - is different :



Does anybody own another one ?

best,
Jed

Euhhh……
Jed, did you meant Alain or Michel ?

.... I'm sorry Michel !!

I bet Alain owns some Kiev III :)

There is no offense, Jed !!
About Alain : I ask myself what he has NOT !!!

Really ? None ?
Kiev III is my favorite camera

I'm just curious about your four meters: do they work fine ? I own two Kiev III and one Kiev IIIa without any issues.
A couple of months ago I purchased a broken Contax III but I found that a simple cleaning put the meter back to life I'll post pictures showing operation in the near future if somebody is interested.

Hi Jed,

Yes, the four cells work.
But I can say nothing about their accuracy (never compared with well- working cell)

Another KNEB III with "A"-prefix arrived today. Serial number is 551468, so it seems to be the newest one of the ones shown here?

Hello uwittehh,

Sorry…

I have K III s/n # A 56 8453, cell in GOST.
So, mine is newest…
(Hй, hй, hй !)

BTW, is your cell in DIN or GOST ?

Regards,
Michel.

Hi Michel,

a Kiev III from 56 with an A seems to be a real late one. I have had one before, but that was an export version.

My cell is in GOST, only my Kiev III from 52 has the cell in DIN (and an F before the aperture values).
