Zenit E, 25th congress of USSR's communist party

Bought a Zenit E with the small Industar 50mm/f3.5 lens for 10 euros. I already have one but this camera celebrates the 25th congress of the Soviet Union's Communist Party.

Zenit E, Moskva 1980 edition

This is the first used camera I bought from the flea market. I was mainly interesting to adapt the Helios 58mm/f2 lens on my EOS. It has an ubcoupled selenium meter that works.
It's the Olympic Games of Moskva 1980 edition, made in USSR in 1978.

Photosniper and Canon EOS XTi

Some pics with the Tair 300mm lens on the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi mounted on the Photosniper.

 

Zenit Photosniper

Bought a Zenit PhotoSniper at the flea market. The seller, a Russian, asked for 120 euros, I offered 50, he wouldn't accept less than 70euros. It's a '79 model, with the Zenit EC camera, a Tair 300mm/4.5, a Helios 44-2 58mm/2, filters, caps, gun, all in a metal box.
They say it was KGB's camera! I say it is very heavy but easy to focus, put it on the EOS, it is a decent lens for shooting airplanes or wildlife, for short time, weights more than 1,5 kg.
And don't use it near people around!
