Zenit 7 Preseries
The Zenit 7 Preseries, (also known as Zenit 7 1st Version) is distinguished by the beautiful, finely machined, modern design, metal plate with engraved horizontal lines and a "7" left unengraved, on the front of the reflex housing.
Less than 200 of this first version of the Zenit 7 were made, with the variations being, a black reflex housing, a black reflex housing, and with and without self-timer. The one pictured has the black reflex housing and no self-timer, being a late version of the pre-series and close in number to the production series.
