Michel,

are there accessory shoe mounts in the box as well? Why I'm asking - I'm curious if there are, are there serial numbers on these shoes?


Thanks,
Vlad.

Hi Vlad,

No, there is no accessory shoe in the box, therefore, no s/n !
By the way, I do not know how the accesory shoe was mounted Blush as you may see on the photo of the top.

Best regards,
Michel.

I couldn't find the top right now, but the serial was a "normal looking", not anything odd in it. And I remember checking the serial at KMZ-production website, it was not bigger than that years annual production. So I would call it "part of regular production numbering?". But maybe Zoom can give us more information?

Thanks Juhani... one of the reasons I'm asking... well KMZ I'm sure is different.. but remember those Kiev III with A and B prefixes? I wonder if it has something to do with replaced parts, that A and B are coding for spare parts or something of sorts.. I know it's a stretch of a theory, but these parts kits showing up made me start thinking along these lines...
