Suddenly gotten the itch to buy a black Kiev.

If you really want a black Kiev See Fedka's Site it's a lot more expensive but you know you will be getting a good user camera and a dealer who will stand behind it.

Otherwise the chrome ones are nice too :)

My FSU life story has been the deferred purchases of more expensive rangefinders. It's a long way between a Leica CL and a Kiev, though.

Have you considered getting the meterless Leica CL in the classifieds? I think it was going for a great price.

Or you could get a Bessa R.

I don't see the CL anywhere for sale...

I have an M6, M3, IIIC, IIIF, and Kiev (with huge meter on top). What I NEED is a contax copy for fun.

FEDKA actually operates close to me (in New York), so I may check out his cameras.

I just wish I could open up that Contax/Kiev back and stick a full-frame digital sensor on that beast. But that's another subject.
 
I have bought from Alex photo 4 front black chomiums and painted myself the top casting.
If to judge the quality of your prospective black camera following what I see from those front black chromiums, I say: Go ahead!!!.
Cheers,
Ruben
