Show Us Your Camera!

[sockeyed]

Comrades,

Every once in a while, the Leicaphiles on photo.net create a thread of pictures of their own cameras in what they refer to as "Leica porn".

I say we do the same here with our Feds, Zorkis and Kievs. Dust off your favorite shooter and post a pic. It doesn't have to be pretty, it just has to have a special place in your heart.

I'll start with my Fed 3A with a chrome 1958 Jupiter-12 and 35mm finder.

You can see my baby (a red dressed Kiev 4a) in this thread http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2652

Soon it will have a sister... 😀

Hi sockeyed, the 'camera and coffee' thread would be my answer to leica-porn too. Read the 54 pages and feel how you get sucked in... 🙂

I'm gonna go fire up my espresso machine...

This 1956 Zorki 4 has been a friend for many years. Fits right in my hand and does great work. Smooth and quiet, too.

My little canon A35 F Nighter.

The Canon A35F, the most underated rangefinder.

The Canon A35F, the most underated rangefinder.

It would of been more popular but less than a year later, canon releases the auto focus AF35...which meant death to the rangefinders back in 78 or 79.

Doug, is that a fake Sonnar, too? 😀

Doug, is that a fake Sonnar, too? 😀

Indeed it is! The easy clue is where it says f = 5sm 😉

The cute little 4K and J12, with 35mm finder. Will soon be visited by it's older sibling Zorki 6, from Mother Russia - Da?

Something that produces a decent sized negative 🙂

none of this teeny 35mm stuff.... 😛

Actually, last weekend at a camera show, I was shocked at the size of one of the 35mm Contax SLRS - HUGE!

I am new here. Will soon have a great working Canonet QL17 next week thanks to greyhoundman. But in the mean time, I do have this "rangefinder". It is digital and I love it. It's my primary camera.

Hi Everyone,

I am new on this forum but a regular on Beststuff.com.
Here is a hybrid Fed-Zorki I assembled from parts cameras. I think it looks very cute.

 

[zhang]

Here is another one. A Zorki 4K with strap lugs and engraved numbers. I swapped a Zorki 4's body case for the 4K. But the engraved numbers are original. Does anyone ever saw another one Zorki 4K with engraved numbers?

 

[Roman]

Welcome Zhang!
I remember quite a few of your rare cameras and weird combinations from the Beststuff forum...

Roman

 

[Doug]

Zhang, welcome! Beautiful like-new cameras, and nice pics too.

Hi Roman and Doug,

Thank you both for the welcome. I have seen you on the beststuff forum for quite sometime. Missed you but don't know why?
