Levonsa, I've just done a search for info about the make and model of the TLR that you posted on Jan. 6. 19 and I was wondering id the apertures and spepds can be set separately even though they are linked? This would be like 3 cameras that I own (which are 35mm rangefinders but they're not Russian so I won't name them).

Thanks, Alexey.
Very interesting with those rare beige Jena Contaxes.
That gave me the idea to check my data to research possible other twins. I have found two other couples:

- the body 27961 with the Sonnar 3104780
- the body 27962 with the Sonnar 3104781
and
- the body 27975 with the Sonnar 3104775
- the body 27976 with the Sonnar 3104776

all that, painted in beige at Jena.

Certainly, it was not done on purpose by the factory, rather the fact that there was only a small number of lenses available in the batch, by my data.

Amitiés. Jacques.

Hello Levonsa

On the #10924 the accessesories shoe is a newer one and the time wheel on the #10925 remember me of the one from a later Zorki. Who can verify?

Best wishes - Guido

Greetings Guido!
You are absolutely right about the late slide at camera No. 10124! But I do not set myself the task in this section of the complete authenticity of the camera parts. I just show the neighboring numbers I found ...
I'm sorry if I disappointed you! :)))
Good mood, Alexey!

Hello Alexey

It was absolutly no disappointment for me, I'm just wondering. It's always interesting to see this pairs of s/n. Because I have just one of this FED-1b series here on the desk I saw the differences on *both* pictures. That's why I wrote my comment.

Best wishes - Guido
