Beautiful camera, but I prefer the traditional black covering.

Nice work!
How hard was that on a scale of 1 to 10? It looks like you didn't have to do much more than remove the self-timer lever.

Interesting! Maybe a "LV" or "Guggi" version is coming.

I got the red snake style cow leather from www.aki-asahi.com. Great looking and really easy to put on.

Well well well, did you use dear Carburo the Helios 103 really ?
This lens is MC, was drawn by engineers in the eighties, has click stops... Even if the Sonnar is a desirable lens, (in a big part because it is written Zeiss on it) it is nearly the same as the Helios...
I think what is important is to take pictures, nice looking cameras are just photographer's vanity...
Helios 1/30s f1.8 on XP2super

yes, I have an Elios 103, and it's a nice lens, but IMHO nothing compared to the sonnar if used with BW films.
Btw, your Kiev is beautiful
But I don't like lighmeters on rf kievs. Just aesthetic considerations.
