Hi all,

I'll attend the fair both days. Hard rain is not expected but the weather isn't fine :(

I'll gladly meet you all ! Please PM your phone number so we can set up a meeting.

Best,

Here's some pictures :











Well, my bag was quite heavy ;)




Jed,

Your basket is full of Kiev Contaxes, or almost!
I hope we will discover your finds on "just arrived..." on the forum! Big smile

Amitiés. Jacques.
Thanks for the photos Jed,

you must be happy because you know more about Kiev cams than the sellers.

I think it was good that you didn't buy the 300 years Fed, am I right.

Good luck for you tomorrow.
More pictures, enjoy :)

Hi Jacques,
I bought 9 Kiev Contaxes plus one Zorki 3. I didn't attend the fair today, I'm too busy. It took me 6 hours of hard research to find these cameras. Except the 4AM all Kievs are around 1950-55. One Kiev came with a 1950 'SK' 50 F2 lens. The rest is quite common.

Best,
Jean

Hi Lenny,
You're right I didn't buy that camera - the price itself tells it's a fake. The engraving is well done, thought.
Best,
Jean
Hi all!!
I met Jean yesterday...We have discussed about fakes all around..
There is a lot!!!! Some are quite well made, but some others definitively not!!!
I have also found interresting cameras, and may be some should be in another topic (Berdsk)
Prices were lower on sunday, and because of the rain, less people came here and sellers began to leave at 12...

Enjoy!!

Thanks Fred,

how do you think about the Zorki-1 with selftimer?
I have the same version of Zorki-5, but can't remove the vulcanite housing. I took the 4 screws in front and the lens mount off, but still can't move the housing. There must be another secret screw. If you ever disassemble it please tell me.
