: I have this old zevit-ttl camera, but the manual are in
Russian and i dont understand this language.
: Is there anyone who knows where to find information on use of
such cameras?
Response:
The Zenit cameras are the direct result of the russians dismantle
of the Carl Zeiss works at Jena and the home of the Rollei's.
General Patton took over at first and saved much of the tooling
but unfortunately he was then asked to withdraw and left much of
the machinery in place, much to his dismay of which he was very
vocal and costed him a severe reprimand from both General Bradley
and Ike.
The russians then took over and eventually came up with the
Zenit. It is a decent camera and it is worthwhile to use it.
No much need for a manual but if you want take a look at
