Vaidis OK.'s review of Zenit 12XP

“I have had a Zenit 12XP 35mm SLR camera with Helios...”

★★★★☆

written by Vaidis OK. on 19/09/2002

Good Points
Manual mode - can operate without batteries, low price, TTL.

Bad Points
No automatic modes, heavy (>1kg), max shutter speed 1/500.

General Comments
I have had a Zenit 12XP 35mm SLR camera with Helios 44, Mir 1B and Jupiter 37A lenses since 1994. The TTL exposure calculation system works perfectly. The only bad point is that there are no automatic modes for fast shooting - every time you need to set shutter speed and aperture by hand. And no autofocus, of course.

I have this camera for about 3 months.But I really don't know how to use it.I can't use the posometer.And it is too heavy but you can get a real performence from it.
