Well this is my first roll on my Iskra, It seems pretty good I'm Satisfied on how it turned out tell me what you think.
My friend said my lens is sharp in the center but on the on side its seems to be loose or something. But like it oh well!

These are pretty great! Might wanna look into the banding issues you got going on there.

The best camera is one that still works!
Looks like you have a light leak ... mine does this occasionally on really bright days if I forget to use the half case that came with it. Especially if I lay the camera somewhere on it's back for a while between shots where it's getting direct sun on the front of the body.

The light leak is due to a seam that parts slightly, and is left uncovered when the coverings on the front panels peel away (on the sides near the bellows).
What you need is some black felt (or similar opaque material) applied in the film spool chambers - on the left side (take-up) in the right side of the chamber, and on the roght side (supply), on the left side of the chamber. This will cover the seams, and prevent the light leaks.
Search around here on RFF, as it has been covered in the past.
Good luck with the fix, the Iskra is a fine camera.

Good advice, and that definitely appears to be your problem. I bought my Iskra from an RF member who had applied the above fix to his camera before I got it, and completely solved the problem. Do the search as suggested and you will find the thread that addresses the issue. The fix is easy.
Cheers...

They look beautiful. That first image is great and I love the last one even with the line through it.
