SERIAL: 9810
Approx 350 examples made (1936 – 1971)
- Excellent condition for a camera of this age
- Believed by some to be the first SLR in production
- There are signs of use, to the body, but
for a near 90 year old camera that is to be expected - The shutter has an intermittent fault where both
curtains will move together allowing no light to
pass to the film plane. - This camera is of course less likely
to be used, more of an item for collection - Sport finder is clean and clear
- Chimney finder is as clear as can be for a near
90 year old camera - Advance works as intended.
- Film back is a little stiff to remove and place back on
- Optics do show signs of age.
- Though the Industar lens is removable, it is the
only lens made natively to this camera. - There is evidence of fogging and moisture
penetration in the optics, to be expected of
soviet design from the late 1930’s - Comes as shown with the cassettes, and case
