Charming little thing!
And not a copy of something German AFAIK.
I had heard of it, never seen anything.

Small format you can see frame size on sovietcams, don't know for sure standard or not.

These little cameras are very rare, not only in Hungary but all over the world. Happen so see one for sale locally, however the price was too much to handle.
I have heard a story from a very influential collector of soviet cameras, that one of his friends found ~ 15 of them, and simply threw them away since he thought that they were not worth anything. I do not want to believe it, since it`s too painful Smile

There was a rumor going around several years back that KMZ was going to release an m42 digital camera, called the N1, based on the Narciss design. There were a few concept drawing if I remember correctly but no actual pictures of a prototype.

Interesting info, probably without any reality base.
