Bad Points: dead ttl meter-live with it. finder little dark around the corner area.
General comments: The Zenit TTL is like an AK-47, bare basic. just a tool to take a picture with it.
spec. is not much but enough to take good picture. Good lens and
shutter sound good. The cost performance is unbeatable. This camera will make you think about photography from very basic level. Make you think about necessity of high dollar equipment. You don't have to baby this camera, barn lot of film and learn photo.

I get fantastic images with my TTL and photosniper. You just have to get to know the camera and how it operates. These things cost nothing to buy so not much to complain about. If your new to photography its worth buying a cheap Zenit. They will make you a better photographer and once you know what you are doing with the manual controls you can splash out on some fancy kit.

The Zenit TTL is a nice sturdy metal camera from a dependable maker, nothing to go wrong, no battery problems like those nasty digital things.
I have one that I picked up in a charity shop in Yorkshire for £5...
It has a nice Japanese lens, a 28mm wide angle and I am pleased with the results.

I purchased a Zenit TTL in a small camera shop in Kherson, Ukraine together with a 58mm f2.0 Helos lens. It is a terrible piece! I have seen resolution better from a $15 digital. The metering is awkward and inaccurate. It is best suited to be a collectors item sitting on the shelf.

I have 2 of these cameras, and I think they are great because they're easy to use, and I get great pictures. Zenit TTL is also the one camera in this series that allready has an electronic light meter installed. I have the original lens, and they have the best optik, so the pictures are also great.

This is a great camera for the price. You can get the Zenit shipped to your door for under 40 bucks (US$). Compare what you can get at the store for 40 bucks (3 filters or something similarly insignificant). No contest. Its fully manual, okay, either you like that or you don't. The Helios lens that came standard is excellent. Very sharp, excellent lens. The TTL was made before Zenit started using a lot of plastic so it should work fine until the shutter curtains disintegrate (they have a realist ...

I have had a Zenit TTL for more than 20 years.
This camera is maximum unificated with Zenit B, BM, E and EM. All these are from the same series with different light metering. B and BM did not have a light meter at all, E and EM had built in light meter with sensor placed on pentaprism (not TTL).
The difference between B and BM, E and EM is automatic apperture that lets focusing with open aperture. The most advanced camera from this series is Zenit TTL, it has all best features from it's prede ...
