Some people have complained about a lack of shutter speeds, but I have yet to experience a situation were ...

    I have had a Zenit 122 35mm SLR camera for more than 15 years. This camera is the next generation of Zenit TTL. Basically it's the same camera with a plastic covered body. It still has the same shutter of pre-war Leica that provides speeds of 1/30-1/500 and flash sync on 1/30. The body is v ...

    The Zenit 122 is a good camera for some one to start with. they are usually well made and have a good 50mm lens with them. there are many pentax type screw lenses out there at give away prices. for a very cheap price you get a case, instruction book in quaint english and a great manual camera. ...

    The Zenit 122 is a very good camera to start learning photography. It's simple, easy to use, has a rather godd set of features but it lacks slower speeds and higher ASA films (the fastest is ASA400). As a good point, you can get very affordable lenses on the net. As they are very string, it's easy ...
