Today a colleague of mine brought me an old camera as a gift Smile

It's a Zenit 11 with a Helios 44M lens, all seemingly in working order. He bought it when he still lived in Russia.

Needless to say that I am happy with this surprise Smile

Nice one I would check the selenium light meter before you use it, its about the one thing that wears out on a Zenit. Good solid no frills camera can be a lot of fun to use! Very Happy Very Happy

The light meter is not working properly, unfortunately. About 1.5 stop off, I would say.

Anyway, time to buy and load some film Smile
