Originally posted by jersey Zenit 3M. It is one crappy camera, huge pile of dinosaur poo. But I like it and I cannot part with it. It being my first "serious" camera has probably something to do with it. But I still do use it. Only 4 times (60, 125, 250, 500 + B and X), viewfinder covering half of frame, no TTL, no focusing help, you focus on working aperture - it is nightmare pre-war camera sold post war. But I like it. I think small Industar 50mm has something to do with it.
Still sorry I sold my Zenit 3m … the first SLR I owned, cost a whole week's wages in 1969, paid for it over three months!
Today, if I absolutely had to downsize everything … the KP would probably be the last to go
… and yes, I still own and use an Industar-50
